INTRODUCTION 

It  is  customary  when  a  new  book  is  born  into  the  world  for  its  "  Next  Friend  "  to  indulge  in  a  few  words  ex- 
planatory— an  effort  to  excuse  if  he  cannot  justify  its  appearance.  This  is  my  present  task.  This  book  had  its 
being  on  this  wise:  Just  on  his  way  to  the  hospital  in  August,  1901,  the  author  was  notified  by  our  beloved  and 
now  lamented  Dr.  McClintock  that  he  was  chairman  of  a  committee  of  ten  to  report  to  the  coming  Synod  on  a  matter 
of  Presbyterian  History.  Lying  on  his  back,  bedewing  his  pillow  with  tears  while  our  martyr  McKinley  was  dying, 
the  chairman  penciled  a  report  which  was  unanimously  approved  by  the  committee,  presented  to  Synod,  and  adopted. 
By  it  a  committee  consisting  of  the  Stated  Clerk  and  a  minister  and  elder  from  each  Presbytery  were  to  secure  and 
utilize  the  material  for  our  work  in  the  state  from  the  earliest  time  till  1900.  The  theory  was  that  the 
Stated  Clerks  would  jump  at  the  chance  of  pouring  their  well  selected  materials  into  the  hands  of  the  chairman, 
who  would  send  out   a  book  full  of  information  and  edification.     Rev.  J.  W.    Hubbard  was  made  chairman. 

Scores  of  geniuses  have  invented  tlje  perpetual  motion — in  each  instance  faultless  in  every  respect  but  one, 
it  would  not  go.  Such  was  our  machine-made  history.  One  Stated  Clerk,  Brother  Nicholas  of  Iowa,  sent  me 
valuable  material.  Two  others  sent  me  interesting  items.  Weary  of  trying  to  make  "bricks  without  straw," 
we  turned  to  the  General  Assembly  Minutes  of  1837  to  1900  for  light.  All  material  facts  were  before  us.  Then 
came  a  vision  of  hard  work.  What  plan  should  we  adopt  best  to  serve  the  church?  To  have  selected  a  hundred 
of  our  best  churches  and  most  successful  ministers  might  have  insured  a  readable  book.  The  story  of  the  200 
churches  dead,  and  of  their  worn  out  pastors  would  not  have  been  cheerful  reading.  We  determined  to  tell  briefly 
the  story  of  all.  We  found  enrolled,  between  1837  and  1900,  750  churches  and  1200  ministers.  The  750  churches 
had  shrunk  to  416  by  1900.     The  334  were  not  all  dead.     Many  had  changed  names. 


The  Cumberland  flock  has  already  been  folded  with  ours.  All  interested  parties  are  hoping  and  expecting 
the  United  Presbyterians  to  be  with  us  soon. 

It  seems  wonderful  that  682,799  of  our  2,200,000  should  be  reckoned  as  church  members.  This  is  explained 
by  the  fact  that  the  Catholic  and  some  other  churches  count  all  their  baptized  children.  We  have  about  one-fifteenth 
of  the  entire  membership  in  our  church,  and  presumably  about  one  hundred  and  fifty-five  thousand  in  our  con- 
gregations. 

We  fear  that  in  distribution  of  space  some  brethren  may  feel  themselves  not  fairly  dealt  with.  In  a  book 
covering  so  wide  a  range  with  750  churches  and  1200  ministers  space  is  precious.  Yet  some  may  feel  surprised  to 
see  how  small  they  look  in  so  large  a  crowd.  It  does  seem  strange  for  one  of  the  masters  to  settle  down  and  hold 
a  church  20,  30,  40,  years,  and  fill  only  a  few  lines,  while  another  sheds  light  on  half  a  dozen  states  and  a  half 
score  of  churches,  and  fills  a  half  page.  But  remember,  dear  Brother  in  thy  feathered  nest,  thou  hast  had  thy 
good  things  in  this  life.     Let  the  wandering  stars  shine. 

A  few  words  about  our  task.  It  was  a  sin  of  ignorance  that  took  us  into  it.  Early  words  of  encourage- 
ment led  us  on.  Then  it  became  a  labor  of  love.  Apparent  indifference  discouraged  and  delayed  the  work.  We 
never  received  a  hundred  subscriptions.  Ill  health  at  one  time  led  us  to  get  the  pleilge  of  a  valued  frieml  to  take 
up  the  work  if  it  fell  from  our  hands.  Finally  we  determined  to  publish  even  if  we  had  to  bear  one-half  the  expense 
ourselves.     We  ought  to  pay  for  our  luxuries. 

We  trust  that  among  our  377  ministers,  1468  elders,  and  45426  members  there  there  ma.y  be  found  interest 
enough,  and  means  enough,  to  take  a  considerable  portion  of  an  edition  of  800.  You  will  believe  me  when  I  say 
that  this  book  has  cost  four  thousand  hours  of  labor.  Not  infrequently,  with  aid  of  the  gray  head  and  nunble 
fingers  across  the  study  table,  have  twenty  hours  of  labor  been  crowded  into  a  day.  It  is  a  family  secret  that  the 
gray  head  and  nimble  fingers  have  made  the  work  possible. 


Possibly,  some  may  find  that  we  have  omitted  their  well-earned  titles.  If  so,  we  beg  pardon.  Will  try 
to  do  better  in  the  next  edition.  With  varying  names  we  have  wrestled  hard  now  and  then  to  keep  some  man 
from  becoming  two.  How  many  times  we  liave  condensed  two  into  one  we  cannot  tell.  Dates  will  get  mixed: 
figures  will  sometimes  lie. 

In  looking  back,  we  find  that  we  commenced  our  task  with  two  qualifications:     1.  leisure.     2.  Love  for  the 
church  and  the  men  whose  story  we  were  to  recount.     Thanks  to  the  friends  who  have  waited  so  patiently. 
We  trust  they  will  find  the  work  a  convenient  book  of  reference,  long  after  the  hand  that  wrote  has  lost  its  cunning. 

Had  we  known  at  the  outset  the  seriousness  of  the  task  offered  the  Synod  would  have  been  looking  elsewhere 
for  its  History.  But  the  pleasures  of  walking  and  talking  with  two  generations  of  Christian  workers,  entering  into 
their  sorrows  and  their  joys,  their  defeats  and  their  victories,  of  seeing  our  church  grow  from  the  handful  to  the  -44,000; 
and  then  the  hope  of  enabling  the  church  that  is  and  the  church  that  is  to  be  to  see  more  clearly  the  things  we  saw — 
these  have  paid  for  the  years  of  strenuous  labor.  And  could  I  have  known  years  ago  what  a  privilege  this  was 
to  be,  and  had  I  been  permitted  to  choose  the  final  labor  in  which  I  should  serve  the  church  for  which  I  began 
pulpit  service  on  my  29th  birthday,  I  would  have  asked  the  privilege  of  writing  The  History  of  the  Presbyterian 
Church  in  Iowa,  and  subscribing  its  Introduction. 

Yours  for  the  Cause, 

Mount  Vernon,  Iowa,  May  11,  1907.  JOSEPH  WELTON  HUBBARD- 


THE  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH  IN  IOWA 


Part  I.     Its  Founding,  its  Presbyteries  and  Synods. 


In  our  early  geographies  "The  Great  American  Desert" 
was  as  real  as  "The  Sahara."  If  memory  serves  aright, 
that  desert  commeneed  between  the  great  rivers  and  reached 
well  out  toward  the  Rocky  Mountains.  It  is  a  fact  at 
least,  that  the  impression  of  early  settlers  was  that  a  con- 
siderable strip  along  the  Mississippi  was  fertile  and  that 
beyond  that  the  land  was  worthless. 

This  is  the  desert  that  doth  blossom  as  the  rose.  Iowa, 
the  multi-voweled,  the  Red  Man's  home  and  his  legacy,  is 
the  land  of  our  story. 

This  Geographical  Jewel,  three  hundred  miles  by  two 
hundred  miles  in  extent,  set  between  the  two  great  rivers, 
its  western  border  nearly  midway  between  Portland,  Maine, 
and  Portland,  Orgeon,  was  the  hunting  ground  of  the  savage 
till  the  coming  of  a  sturdier  race.  Our  God  had  kept  the 
land  for  the  "sifted  seed"  that  should  develop  into  a  Na- 
tion of  power  and  freedom,  and  a  Church  of  intelligence  and 
spiritual  power. 


In  177G  a  new-born  Xation  astonished  the  world.  Three 
millions  of  freemen  stood  before  the  world,  at  the  close  of  a 
long  and  bitter  struggle,  as  a  Nation  with  a  right  to  be. 
But,  with  independence  achieved,  their  prospects  were  not 
liright.  Small  in  numbers,  nationally  and  personally  bank- 
rupt, geographically  with  narrow  boundai-ies,  what  could 
be  expected?  Canada,  lately  wrested  by  the  Mother 
Country  from  France,  shut  us  in  on  the  north;  Spain,  the 
great  Discoverer  and  Colonizer,  bounded  us  on  the  south  and 
west;  the  French,  by  right  of  discovery  and  occupancy, 
held  the  entire  upper  Mississippi  Valley,  the  wonders  of 
which  were  to  astound  the  centuries. 

Those  little  states  had  before  them  the  question  that 
has  troubled  many  in  our  day — the  question  of  expansion. 
It  became  a  burning  question,  a  necessitj'  and  a  duty.  Our 
Church,  whose  birth  as  a  completed  organization  bears  the 
same  date  as  the  completed  nation,  had  forced  upon  it  the 
duty  of  expansion.  And  Nation  and  Church  have  moved 
forward  in  the  discharge  of  the  duty.     Both  have  expanded 


HISTORY 


The  Spaniard  faded  out  from  Florida.  Napoleon  had 
bought  the  Lower  Mississippi  region  from  Spain.  In  good 
time  the  Mississippi  Valley  was  bought  from  Napoleon  at  a 
ridiculously  small  price.  It  was  a  good  bargain  for  Ijoth 
parties.  The  territory  was  everj'thing  to  us.  The  money 
was  worth  more  than  the  land  to  the  Meteor  of  Sovereigns, 
the  Majestic  Prisoner  of  St.  Helena. 

Later  on,  "That  man  of  blood  and  iron,  Marcus  Whit- 
man," saved  for  us  our  own  Oregon,  at  a  time  when  a  United 
States  Senator  pul jlicly  declared,  "  I  would  not  give  a  pinch 
of  snuff  for  all  that  lies  beyond  the  Rocky  Mountains." 
He  evidently  placed  a  high  value  on  his  snuff. 

.  Then  came  our  trouble  with  Mexico;  and,  by  a  liberal 
purchase,  we  completed  our  broad  belt  to  the  Pacific. 
Later  we  bought  Alaska  for  about  the  price  of  a  season's 
catch  of  salmon — not  to  speak  of  seals  and  gold.  And  so 
we  made  a  field  for  Sheldon  Jackson  and  his  lieutenants  to 
plant  the  gospel  of  civilization  and  of  Christianity  under 
the  midnight  sun. 

Our  Church  has  worthily  kept  pace  with  the  Country; 
and  gospel  privileges  have  traveled  with  the  hardy  pioneers. 

In  1837  our  General  Assembly,  after  years  of  strife, 
not  creditable  to  either  party,  "  excluded "  a  considerable 


part  of  the  Church,  and  inaugurated  the  lamentable  breach 
which  took  thirtj'-three  years  to  heal.  For  a  generation 
the  unbrotherly  struggle  between  brethren  of  the  same 
name  and  faith  went  on.  It  is  at  the  outset  of  this  bitter 
struggle  that  our  history  begins. 

Settlers  from  the  older  states,  seeking  broader  farms, 
had  moved  westward,  and  brought  the  Church  with  them. 
Iowa  was  especially  favored  in  the  character  of  its  pioneers. 
Dubuque  had  been  a  French  Post,  and  the  Roman  Catholic 
Church  was  there,  of  coiu'se.  As  a  rule,  people  seeking  new 
homes  follow  isothermal  lines.  So  our  early  settlers  came 
from  New  York,  Pennsylvania  and  Ohio,  with  a  sprinkling 
from  Virginia  and  Kentucky.  And  through  these  states 
had  flowed  the  tides  from  abroad.  Either  directly  or  in- 
directly the  Scotch  and  the  Irish  had  come.  Among  them 
not  a  few  of  those  who  had  the  misfortune  to  be  born  out 
of  their  native  country,  and  were,  therefore,  called  Scotch- 
Irish.  That  mixture  leavened  the  early  population.  The 
Presbyterian  Chmch  for  them  was  a  necessity.  In  1S34 
it  was  first  made  lawful  for  white  men  to  settle  in  our  terri- 
tory. The  lilierty  was  eagerly  used;  and  by  hundreds  the 
pioneers  began  to  stake  their  claims  and  build  their  cabins. 
They  naturally  first  entered  along  our  southern  border. 


PRESBYTERIES  AND  SYNODS 


3 


The  story  of  the  peripatetic  life  of  our  state  is  worthy 
of  note.  In  1803  it  was  not  in  the  United  States,  but  was  a 
French  possession.  At  the  Louisiana  Purchase,  180-3,  it 
became  a  part  of  the  Indiana  Territory. 


In  1804  it  was  in  Iowa  Territory.  In  1812  it  was  in 
Missouri  Territory.  In  1834  it  was  in  Michigan  Territory. 
In  1836-8  it  was  in  Wisconsin  Territory.  In  1838  it  icas 
Iowa  Territory.     In  1846  it  became  a  state. 


Story  of  the  Old  School,    1837-70 


THE  FIRST  PRESBYTERIAN  CHURCH 

In  response  to  petition,  the  Presbyterian  Church  of 
West  Point  was  organized  June  24,  1837,  by  Revs.  Samuel 
Wilson  and  Launcelot  G.  Bell,  representatives  of  the  Pres- 
bytery of  Schuyler,  Illinois,  lying  across  the  river.  Of  the 
eleven  who  were  organized  into  the  church  we  have  the 
names  of  but  ten:  Alexander  H.  Walker,  Isabella  Walker, 
Ambrose  Stone,  William  Patterson,  Eleanor  Patterson, 
David  Walker,  Nancy  Walker,  Cyrus  Poage,  Mary  Poage, 
Malinda  Taylor.  The  elders  chosen  were  Alexander  H. 
Walker,  Cyrus  Poage  and  William  Patterson.  This  Church 
was  followed  by  Round  Prairie  (Kossuth),  with  thirteen 
members,  August  14,  1839,  and  Mount  Pleasant  in  1840, 
with  six  members.     By  the  fall  of  1840  Burlington,  Fort 


Madison,  Davenport,  Iowa  Citj',  Spring  Creek  and  Rocking- 
ham had  been  added  to  the  roll,  making  nine. 

THE  FIRST  PRESBYTERY— IOWA 

In  tlie  fall  of  1840  these  nine  churches  were  set  off  from 
Schuyler  Presbytery,  and  the  Presbytery  of  Iowa  was  formed. 
The  Presbytery  met  as  directed,  at  Blooniington  (iluscatinc) 
and  organized,  November  6,  1840. 

Roll:  I..  Ct.  Bell,  who  ])rcailied  the  opening  sermon;

Story  of  the  New  School,    1838-70 


\\'ith  the  zeal  born  of  the  troublous  times,  the  New 
School  were  little  behind  the  Old.  They  worked  largely 
under  a  Union  Board,  along  with  the  Congregationalists. 
That  American  Home  Missionary  Society  had  proved  a 
source  of  irritation  before  the  division  of  the  Church,  and 
sometimes  troubled  its  best  friends  in  the  New  School  fold.

1870. 

From  the  two  Old  School  and  the  one  New  School 
Synods  were  formed  the  tw(j  Synods — Iowa  North  and  Iowa 
South. 

The  dividing  line  is  the  south  line  of  the  counties  of 
Clinton,  Jones,  Greene,  Carroll,  Crawford,  Monona. 

IOWA  NORTH. 

The  Synod  was  organized  at  Cedar  Rapids,  July  5,  1870. 
The  field  was  divided  into  four  Presbyteries:  Cedar  Rapids, 
Dubuque,  Fort  Dodge  and  Waterloo,  easily  located  from 
the  names  of  their  principal  cities. 

IOWA  SOUTH. 

This  was  organized  at  Des  Moines  July  13.  1S70.  The 
Presbyteries  were  Iowa,  Iowa  Cit}',  Des  Moines  and  Mis- 
souri River. 

1872-4. 
The  I'resbytery  of  Missouri  River  was  so  ilivitled  as 
to  form  three:  Council  Bluffs,  Omaha  and  Nebraska.     The 
last  two  in  1874  were  set  off  to  the  Synod  of  Nebraska. 


Period 


STATE  WIDE  SYNOD 


In  1881  the  General  Assembly  adopted  the  idea  of 
Synods  boimded  by  state  lines,  the  act  to  take  effect  January 
2,  1882.  The  new  Synod  was  organized  at  Des  Moines, 
October  19,  1882,  Rev.  Samuel  Storrs  Howe  as  Convener. 
Rev.  A.  S.  Marshall  was  chosen  Moderator,  Rev.  D.  S.  Tap- 
pan,  Stated  Clerk,  and  Rev.  H.  G.  Rice,  Permanent  Clerk. 

The  Presbyteries  remained  as  before:  Cedar  Rapids, 
Council  Bluffs,  Des  Moines,  Dubuque,  Fort  Dodge,  Iowa, 
Iowa  City  and  Waterloo. 

The  Synod  wsus  made  a  delegate  bodj'.  Ratio  of  rep- 
resentation, a  minister  and  elder  for  every  four  niiuLsters. 
Ratio  changed  later  to  one  for  every  si.\. 

In  1890  the  Presbytery  of  Sioux  City  was  set  off  from 
Fort  Dodge;  and  in  1891  the  Presbytery  of  Corning  was  set 
off  from  Council  Bluffs.  The  Synodical  Map  in  Souvenir 
shows  the  boundaries  of  Presbyteries.  For  the  years  1903-4 
we  had  the  honor  of  carrying  the  Presbytery  of  Porto  Rico 
on  our  roll;  an  honor  given  us  in  recognition  of  the  valuable 
service  rendered  by  our  own  Dr.  J.  Milton  Greene,  in  the 
establishment  of  our  work  in  Porto  Rico. 


HISTORY 


Part  II.     Story  of  the  Pioneers 


This  naturally  follows  the  story  of  Presbyteries  and 
Synods.  Fully  and  fitly  told  it  should  be  of  thrilling  inter- 
est. Scores  of  noble  lives  were  ]3ut  into  the  early  work  of 
our  Church,  many  of  which  would  make  an  excellent  chap- 
ter, and  some  of  which  would  make  a  noble  volume. 

It  was  our  hope  to  secure  worthy  tributes  for  these 
from  a  number  of  the  Fathers  who  are  still  with  us;  and  we 
had  liberal  promises  from  several.  But  we  find  that  when 
it  comes  to  sitting  down  in  cold  Ijlood  (and  that  cooled  by 
age)  to  tell  the  story  of  earh*  days  and  vanished  companions, 
the  spirit  may  Ije  willing,  but  the  flesh  is  weak.  Time  and 
strength  fail.  Especially  did  we  look  to  our  Synotlical  Mis- 
sionaries for  help. 

Our  unc|Uenchable  Dr.  Alexander  K.  Baird  tcjok  full 
notes  from  the  Old  Assembly  Minutes,  and  was  ready  to  put 


R 


his  characteristic  contribution  into  shape  when  he  was 
called  on  to  go  to  the  mountains  anil  enter  a  winter's 
campaign  for  the  Master. 

Dr.  T.  S.  Bailey  has,  with  painful  yet  loving  labor, 
paid  his  tribute  to  a  large  number  of  the  men  he  knew.  Dr. 
W.  J.  Harsha,  several  years  ago,  gave  us  "The  Story  ()f  Iowa" 
so  well  told  as  to  furnish  information  for  volumes,  and  inspir- 
ation for  every  reader.  Dr.  F.  A.  Shearer,  in  his  autobi- 
ography, gives  valuable  light.  Dr.  J.  M.  McElroy,  in  his 
late  tribute  to  "The  Men  of  the  Past,"  has  done  good  service 
for  us  all.  For  our  use  Dr.  George  D.  Stewart  has  contrib- 
uted his  "Reminiscences  of  Iowa."  As  the  story  is  typical 
of  what  scores  of  others,  if  living,  might  have  furnished,  and 
for  the  sake  of  his  tributes  to  the  fathers  anil  brethren,  we 
insert  it  here: 


eminiscences 


of  I

By  REV.  GEORGE  D.  STEWART,   D.  D.,  of  Fort  Madison.   Iowa 

Of  my  fifty-five  years  of  ministerial  life,  forty-five  have     years,  chu'ing  which  I  was  pastor  f)f  the  First  Presbyterian 
been  spent  in  Iowa,  with  the  deduction  of  six  and  one-half     Church  of  Omaha,  Nebraska;  a  part  of  that  time, was  in  con- 


PIONEERS 


nectioii  with  the  Presbyter}-  of  Council  Bluffs,  Sj'iiod  of 
Iowa. 

In  the  spring  of  1S59,  whilst  pastor  of  the  First  Presby- 
terian Church  of  Bath,  New  York,  my  health  failed,  and  I 
resigned  my  charge  and  returned  to  my  home  near  Phila- 
delphia, to  recruit. 

On  the  22d  of  October,  1859,  I  left  Philadelphia  for 
Mt.  Pleasant,  Iowa,  where  former  parishioners  of  mine  at 
Bath,  the  Whiting  family,  well  known  in  the  ainials  of  Mt. 
Pleasant,  were  residing. 

My  first  Sunday,  I  preached  in  the  Mt.  Pleasant  Church, 
which  was  a  large  new  brick  structure,  the  best  Presljyterian 
Church  building,  I  remember,  at  that  time  in  Iowa.  Rev. 
Timothy  Stearns,  a  former  pastor,  was  still  residing  there, 
and  he  and  the  pastor.  Rev.  Mr.  McClelland,  gave  me  a  cor- 
dial welcome  to  the  West.  The  next  Svuiday  I  preached 
for  the  Winfield  Church.  They  had  no  church  building,  and 
service  was  held  Sunday  morning  at  a  school  house,  across 
the  creek,  about  three  miles  from  the  town. 

The  next  Sunday  I  was  advised  to  spend  at  We.st  Point, 
the  first  organized  Presbyterian  Chvu-ch  in  Iowa.  My 
friends  equipped  me  with  a  ponj'  and  saddle  bags,  and  in 
this  itinerant  st3'le  I  entered  West  Point,  which,  with  other 


points,  was  to  be  the  scene  of  my  labors  for  the  next  four  and 
one-half  years,  fording  the  Skunk  River  on  my  way  thither. 
Tliere  wa.s  no  church  building.  There  had  been  one  at  an 
earlier  date,  but  it  became  uiLsafe  and  was  taken  down.  The 
people  worshiped  in  a  brick  building,  erected  for  a  court 
house,  and  which,  on  the  removal  of  the  county  seat  to  Fort 
Madison,  had  been  given  to  the  Presbyterians  of  the  Synod 
of  Iowa  (0.  S.),  for  a  college,  which,  after  a  struggle  of  a  few 
years,  was  now  defunct.  Our  first  service  was  held  on  a 
^\eek-day  night.  A  few  tallow  candles  served  to  make  the 
darkness  visible,  but  the  prospect  did  not  seem  very  cheer- 
ing. The  next  Sunday  I  preached  at  West  Point  to  a  good 
congregation;  and  in  the  afternoon  to  a  few  people  in  the 
Sharon  Church,  nine  miles  distant,  situated  where  La  Crew 
now  is.  The  building  stood  then  alone  on  the  prairie,  a  few 
scattering  farm  houses  only  in  sight.  After  spending  about 
a  month  in  traveling  and  preaching,  at  the  invitation  of  the 
West  Pt)int  and  Sharon  Churches,  I  returned  to  West  Point 
and  made  it  my  home  and  center  of  my  mission  circuit.  I 
returned  to  West  Point  about  the  close  of  December  and 
engaged  to  preach  six  months  to  these  churches,  expecting 
to  return  East  in  the  spring.  Besides  preaching  in  the  morn- 
ing at  West  Point,  I  had  sent  an  appointment  for  the  after-

HISTORY 


noon  at  Pilot  Grove,  ten  miles  northwest,  where  there  were 
a  few  Presbyterians  to  be  cared  for.  Sunday  was  January 
1,  1S60,  and  when  I  naounted  my  horse  after  dinner  to  ride 
these  ten  miles  over  the  prairie,  the  thermometer  registered 
twelve  degrees  below  zero.  I  found  a  goodly  little  bunch 
of  people  assembled,  several  of  them  Quakers,  among  whom 
I  found  lasting  friends ;  and  I  ministered  to  them  and  to  the 
Presbyterian  families  for  four  and  one-half  years,  once  a 
month.  After  my  removal  to  Burlington  I  was  called  back 
there,  riding  fortj'  miles  on  horse  back,  to  hold  a  conmiunion 
service,  and  seven  yoimg  men  were  received  into  communion. 
Among  these  were  the  Rev.  Dr.  Adam  W.  Ringland,  his  two 
lirothers  and  two  uncles.  We  had  received  a  number  into 
the  chur(;h  previously.  After  I  had  preached  my  first  Sun- 
day at  West  Point,  my  arrangement  required  that  I  should 
hold  service  the  next  Sunday  in  Sharon  congregation.  It 
had  been  decided  that  it  was  inexpedient  to  trj'  to  meet  in 
the  church  building,  which  was  so  far  east  from  the  bulk  of 
the  people.  The  first  appointment  was  made  for  the  Wil- 
kinson school  house,  about  a  mile  north  of  where  Sharon 
church  now  stands.  I  continued  services  there  till  the  fol- 
lowing summer.  The  school  house  soon  became  too  strait 
for  our  congregation,  and  when  the  fine  weather  came  the 


women  and  children  occupied  the  inside  of  the  school  house 
and  the  men  placed  b(.iards  outside  for  seats  and  occupied 
them.  It  was  soon  seen  that  we  must  have  a  more  projier 
meeting  place.  The  first  thing  was  to  buy  suitable  ground 
for  a  church  and  biu'ial  ground.  After  much  canvassing 
on  the  subject  of  a  location,  the  corner  of  the  township  line 
road,  which  ran  north  by  the  Wilkinson  school  house,  was 
deemed  most  central;  and  Dr.  Todd,  a  Kentuckian,  who 
owned  a  large  farm,  including  the  southwest  corner  of  this 
intersection,  very  kindly  sold  us  four  acres  of  that  corner 
for  $100.00,  and  thither,  during  the  summer,  the  Sharon 
church  building  was  removed,  two  and  three-fourths  miles 
from  where  La  Crew  now  is.  It  was  a  very  considerable 
task,  which  was  done  voluntarily  by  the  congregation,  and 
two  (if  the  elders,  William  Robertson  and  James  B.  Pease, 
superintended  the  work.  We  had  now  a  church  and  church 
yard  for  burial,  and  there  Sharon  church  and  cemetery  re- 
main, the  church  replaced  by  a  new  one  and  the  cemetery 
enlarged  and  beautified  at  the  great  expense  of  $85,000,  by 
the  generosity  of  the  Seeley  family,  who  were  brought  into 
the  church  during  my  labors  there.  They  endowed  the 
cemetery  with  a  large  and  valuable  farm,  and  erected  on  it 
suitable  and  attractive  buildings  and  appliances,  and  water

power  for  the  irrigation  of  the  cemetery.  They  surrounded 
the  cenieterj'  witli  an  iron  fence,  \\ith  a  Now  Hanipsiiiro 
granite  foundation.  This  cemetery  contains  the  precious 
dust  of  the  first  generation  of  Sharon  church  people,  tlie 
early  settlers  of  that  prairie. 

Quite  a  number  of  our  people  lived  in  the  vicinity  of 
Primrose,  a  small  village  four  and  one-half  miles  southeast  of 
Sharon  church.  There  we  held  service  in  the  M.  E.  church 
on  the  same  day  as  the  Sharon  ap])ointinent,  at  three  o'clock. 
Samuel  Davis,  a  venerable  and  excellent  ekler  of  the  Sharon 
church,  resided  there,  and  in  his  house  the  minister  always 
found  a  warm  welcome.  Many  were  added  to  the  chm-ch 
there  in  due  time,  and  a  church  was  organized  and  a  church 
building  erected  afterwards.  While  living  at  Fort  Madison, 
I  oHiciated  at  the  dedication  of  the  bthlding.  The  third  ap- 
pointment that  day  was  at  Dover,  six  miles  east  of  Prim- 
rose. In  short  days  and  bad  roads  it  kept  the  preaclier 
moving  pretty  lively  to  fill  these  aiipointmcnts  on  time.  But 
he  usuallj'  was  able  to  do  this  bj*  econom}-  of  time  and  a 
good  horse.  The  school  house  was  generally  full  to  the 
extreme  limit  when  the  minister  arrived  there  at  nightfall. 
The  Bounells,  Dickeys,  Hoovers,  Walkers  and  Linns  were 


early  members  of  the  church,  and  in  due  time  others  cam^e 
in. 

To  return  to  West  Point,  one  Sunday  morning  early  in 
January,  LSGO,  the  minister  was  unusually  lonely  and  dis- 
couraged. He  felt  that  if  any  good  was  done  the  Lord  must 
do  it,  and  in  that  spirit  he  preached  the  "  Confession  of  Jesus 
Christ."  An  interest  seemed  to  awaken  at  once.  Several 
remained  after  service  to  speak  to  the  miuLster  of  their  duty 
and  desire;  and  extra  services  for  that  week  were  appointed. 
In  all,  twenty-two  or  tvicnty-three  pei-soas  were  added  to 
the  church  at  that  time,  among  them  Mr.  Adolph  Salmon, 
born  a  Hebrew  in  Hamburg,  German}',  afterwards  Treasurer 
and  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the  churcii,  a 
great  help  and  comfort  to  the  pastor,  with  his  wife,  who  was 
reared  in  the  Lutheran  Church.  He  died  during  my  resi- 
dence there,  calmly  and  hopefully  in  the  Christian  faith. 
In  addition  there  were  other  men  and  women  received  who 
became  a  great  help  to  the  church.  The  congregations  were 
large,  both  from  town  and  country,  and  were  enthusiastic, 
and  it  was  demanded  that  we  should  build  a  church.  The 
congregation  had  long  owned  an  inside  lot,  and  the  adjoin- 
ing corner  lot  also  was  secured.  The  pastor  obtained  an 
acceptable  plan,  and  during  1861  and  1862  the  present  bu  il

ing  was  erected.  By  the  liberality  of  the  people  it  was  paid 
for  on  completion,  without  even  asking  a  collection  on  the 
day  of  dedication.  It  is  still  in  good  condition  and  is  one 
of  the  best  country  church  buildings  in  Iowa.  The  people 
have  since  secured  a  handsome  and  commodious  manse  and 
paid  for  it  also. 

Once  a  month  the  minister  preached  at  Franklin,  a 
town  six  miles  distant,  at  three  p.  m.,  in  a  stone  church 
erected  and  given  for  the  use  of  the  people  by  John  Berger, 
an  elder  of  the  Evangelical  St.  Peter's  Church.  Even  hymn 
books  were  provided  by  him.  He  had  the  happiness  after- 
wards of  seeing  two  of  his  sons  active  and  successful  ministers 
of  the  gospel.  On  the  4th  day  of  March,  1861,  the  day  of 
President  Lincoln's  inauguration,  a  series  of  services  began 
at  Sharon  church.  The  Rev.  J.  B.  McBride,  then  of  Bentons- 
port,  now  of  Princeton,  Iowa,  assisted  me  very  efficiently 
and  acceptably.  From  the  first  a  deep  interest  was  awak- 
ened and  there  were  many  com'ersions,  especially  of  adults. 
At  the  close  of  the  meeting  thirty-three  united  with  the 
church.  Sixteen  of  these  were  men.  There  were  sixteen 
adult  ba])tisms.  The  work  was  very  striking  and  encourag- 
ing and  laid  the  foundation  for  tlie  extensive  growth  of  a 
vigorous  country  congregation. 


The  four  and  one-half  years  spent  in  itinerant  work  in 
the  northwest  part  of  Lee  County  had  been  very  happy 
years.  The  people  had  welcomed  the  minister  very  cor- 
dially and  had  cheered  on  his  work.  They  became  warm 
personal  friends  of  the  pastor's  and  continued  such  during 
life,  and  he  has  since,  from  time  to  time,  been  called  to  per- 
form the  last  sad  duty  for  many  of  them  as  they  were  laid 
to  rest.  But  the  work  of  riding  so  many  mUes  over  the 
prairie  to  six  different  appointments,  and  many  occasional 
appointments,  and  the  long  distance  necessary  in  pastoral 
visitations,  in  all  sorts  of  weather  and  all  kinds  of  roads,  had 
been  a  severe  one.  And  the  Lord  seemed  to  open  the  way 
to  a  proper  change  and  an  equally  important  work.  The 
field  had  widened  so  that  two  ministers  or  more  have  occu- 
pied the  same  field  ever  since.  So  after  these  years,  we  sep- 
arated in  friendship  and  with  mutual  regrets,  and  with  warm 
regards  which  continue  to  this  day  in  children  and  children's 
children. 

In  the  spring  of  1864,  I  was  called  to  supply  the  First 
Presbyterian  Church,  of  Burlington,  Iowa,  and  deemed  it 
my  duty  to  accept  this  call.  The  church  had  passed  through 
a  somewhat  chequered  and  not  very  successful  history,  with 
very  brief  pastorates.     It  had  been  divided  once,   and   a

church  built  for  the  new  congregation,  which  after  a  time 
had  been  sold  to  the  Roman  Catholics.  On  account  of 
differences  of  opinion  about  the  Civil  War,  the  church  was 
now  much  distracted,  and  some  long-time  and  honored 
members  had  gone  elsewhere.  It  seemed  very  desirable  to 
build  up  our  church  in  this  growing  and  important  city.  It 
was  with  this  feeling  that  I  entered  upon  the  work  there, 
determined  to  preach  only  the  gospel  of  Jesus  Christ,  and 
to  take  no  part  in  any  divisive  measures.  The  Lord  blessed 
the  work,  and  we  were  soon  called  upon  to  enlarge  the 
church  building.  A  spirit  of  harmony  took  the  place  of 
division.  The  salary  was  increased  from  $800.00  to  $1500.00 
a  year. 

In  the  pastor's  first  year  at  Burlington,  on  the  4th  day 
of  Octolier,  1864,  he  was  married  at  Fort  Madison,  Iowa, 
by  the  Rev.  R.  H.  Kennard,  to  Miss  Emily  Stewart  Walker, 
eldest  daughter  of  Dr.  J.  C.  Walker,  an  elder  of  the  church 
of  Fort  Madison,  who,  with  liLs  wife,  Mrs.  Martha  Stewart 
Walker,  were  charter  members  of  the  church  in  Fort  Madison 
in  1838,  and  devoted  adherents  all  life  long.  Two  children 
were  born  here,  our  only  son,  George  B.  Stewart,  and  our 
eldest  daughter,  Helen  Walker  Stewart,  who  died  in  her 
sixth  year  at  Omaha. 


The  parting  with  the  church  at  Burlington  was  a  sore 
trial.  We  had  bought  our  cottage  and  set  up  our  home 
there.  We  gained  a  large  circle  of  devoted  friends.  Many 
have  passed  away  in  the  faith,  and  many  remain  to  this  day, 
who  have  ever  been,  with  their  children,  a  joy  and  comfort 
in  our  lives,  most  highly  prized  by  ourselves  and  by  our 
children. 

The  pastor  established  an  afternoon  service,  once  in 
two  weeks,  at  a  union  church  building  at  Spring  Creek,  six 
miles  from  Burlington.  A  large  congregation  gathered 
there  from  the  surrounding  country,  and  the  church,  which 
had  been  in  abeyance  for  some  years,  was  resuscitated. 
Two  elders  were  elected,  and  a  number  of  members  were 
added. 

After  six  and  a  half  years  of  happy  and  successful  work, 
I  was  called  to  be  pastor  of  the  Fu-st  Presbyterian  Church 
of  Omaha,  Nebraska.  That  church  had  just  passed  through 
a  time  of  great  trial.  Two-thirds  of  the  membership  had 
gone  out  under  the  former  pastor  and  formed  a  new  inde- 
pendent church.  Only  fifty  members  were  left  intheFinst 
church.  They  had  a  handsome  new  church  building,  but 
with  a  debt  of  $10,000.00  pressing  on  it.  The  few  churches 
in  Nebraska  were  attached  to  the  Presbytery  of  Council 


14 


HISTORY 


Bluffs,  Iowa.  Miiiiy  of  the  leading  men  in  the  Synod 
deemed  it  my  duty  to  accept  the  unanimous  call  of  this  im- 
perilled church.  Dr.  Cyrus  Dickson,  an  honored  secretary 
of  our  board  of  home  missions,  was  of  this  opinion.  So,  in 
obedience  to  the  voice  of  duty,  as  it  seemed,  I  accepted  this 
call.  I  have  never  ceased  to  wonder  at  the  c(nu-age  which 
led  me  to  undertake  this  work. 

To  add  to  the  difficulties,  the  panic  of  1873  came  on, 
and  then  the  grasshopi^er  scourge;  and  a  consequence  of 
this  scourge  was  a  famine  in  a  large  part  of  the  state.  The 
people  of  the  eastern  and  central  state.?  freely  responded  to 
the  published  needs  of  the  starving  people.  At  one  time 
during  the  winter  forty  thousand  rations  were  issued  regu- 
larh'  every  day  from  Omaha,  under  the  supervision  of  a 
lieutenant  of  the  U.  S.  army,  with  the  aid  of  a  corps  of  as- 
sistants. People  left  their  hoinesteads  and  went  back  to 
the  East.  The  city  of  Omaha  was  too  poor  to  light  its  street 
lamps.  But  in  1877  the  dark  clouds  passed  away  and 
prosperity  returned  to  the  state  and  city.  After  striving 
for  .'^ix  and  a  half  years  as  pastor,  and  having  seen  the  mem- 
laership  trebled,  I  had  the  pleasure  of  seeing  a  great  religious 
interest  awakened  in  the  winter  of  1876,  during  union  serv- 


ices.    The  $10,000.00  debt  was  carried  and  so  the  church 
was  saved. 

The  cirexunstances  of  the  city  of  Omaha,  as  a  frontier 
town,  made  pastoral  and  charitable  work  among  the  very 
IJoor  and  destitute  more  necessary  than  in  any  other  place 
I  have  ever  known.  Mrs.  Stewart  and  myself  gave  much  of 
our  time,  energj',  interest  and  means  to  this  work.  But  one 
of  our  great  rewards  was  the  large  number  of  valued  and  life- 
long friends  we  gained,  through  whose  friendship  the  lines 
of  our  life  had  been  widened  and  many  joys  added,  which 
we  would  not  willingly  have  gone  without,  even  if  their 
cultivation  involved  much  self-denial  and  privation. 

In  the  autumn  of  1873  I  was  sent  as  a  commissioner 
from  the  Presbytery  of  Omaha  to  the  Synod  of  Iowa,  at 
Iowa  City,  to  ask  the  Synod  to  divide  the  Presbytery  of 
Omaha  into  three  Presbyteries,  and  to  concur  in  asking  the 
General  Assembly,  at  its  next  meeting,  to  form  these  into 
the  Synod  of  Nebraska.  These  requests  were  granted;  and 
in  the  autumn  of  1874  the  first  Synod  of  Nebraska  met  at 
Omaha.  I  was  elected  chairman  of  the  committee  on  mis- 
.sions,  and  acted  in  that  capacity  until  I  left  the  Synod,  dur- 
ing the  formative  period  of  oiy  churches.  In  a  meeting  at 
Omaha  of  the  superintendents  of  missions,  the  committees

of  missions  of  the  Synod  of  Iowa,  and  of  the  congregational 
association  of  Nebraska,  formed  the  league  of  comity-  in 
Home  Missions,  under  which  both  bodies  subsei[uentlj'  acted 
in  the  formation  of  their  churches  in  Nebraska. 

In  the  sjiring  of  1877  I  received  and  accepted  a  unani- 
movis  call  to  be  Pastor  of  the  Union  rrcsbyterian  Church 
at  Fort  Madison,  Iowa,  in  the  region  where  1  had  previously 
spent  eleven  years  in  ministerial  work.  In  April,  1877,  I 
removed  with  my  family  to  Fort  Madison,  where  in  due 
time  I  was  installed  Pastor,  a  relatiimshiii  which  c(nitimicd 
with  unbroken  harmony  luitil  it  ceased  Jamuiry  1st,  1904. 
The  congregation,  in  town  and  country,  grew  and  increased, 
until  it  was  felt  we  nuist  arise  and  l)uild.  Poor  and  rich 
liberally  responded  in  subscriptions;  and  voluntary  gifts, 
large  and  small,  came  in  from  here  and  elsewhere,  \mtil  it 
seemed  safe  to  begin.  Some  were  afraid  that  a  large  and 
onerous  debt  would  be  incurred,  as  had  been  done  once  be- 
fore in  the  building  of  their  church.  That  debt  had  long 
pressed  heavily,  until  at  the  \uiiou  of  the  old  and  new  sciiool 
churches  in  1858,  when  the  Union  Church  of  Fort  Madison 
was  formed,  and  payment  of  this  debt  was  assumed  by  Dr. 
J.  C.  Walker  and  paid  by  hijuself.  So  now  the  jiastor,  in 
faith  that  the  amount  necessarj-  to  complete  the  church  with- 


out debt  would  be  raised,  and  in  order  to  put  this  obstacle 
of  fear  of  debt  out  of  the  way,  assumed  the  responsibility 
of  finishing  the  church  without  debt,  out  of  his  own  narrow 
means,  if  necessary,  provided  the  congregation  agreed  to 
give  him  the  clujice  of  the  architect  and  the  plan.  This 
was  done  in  a  congregational  meeting  and  a  building  com- 
mittee appointed,  of  which  the  i)astor  was  chairnum. 

Tlie  pastor  secured  a  plan  from  Mr.  L.  B.  \'alk,  a  dis- 
tinguished church  architect  of  New  York  City,  who  was 
afterwards  the  architect  of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church 
of  Purlington.  The  ]jlan  was  unanimously  adopted  by  the 
congregation  and  authority  given  to  the  committee  to  build. 
The  coinerstone  was  laid  in  .Iimc,  1884,  the  Rev.  Dr.  Mc- 
C^lintock  and  others  assisting  the  ])astor.  The  church  was 
finished  antl  dedicated  by  Sejiteniber  1st,  ISSo,  the  pastor 
conducting  service,  assisted  by  other  of  his  brethren.  A 
large  sum  remained  to  1)6  raised  to  clear  the  church  from 
del)t.  Hut  the  (uuigregation  responded  nobly  and  the  whole 
sum  was  raised  and  the  church  dedicated  free  from  debt. 
Five  thousand  dollars  wa.s  gi\en  by  two  trustees.  The 
ladies  afterwards  paid  $2()()0.00  for  a  jiipe  organ.  All  were 
happy.  The  congregation  was  satisfied  with  their  beautiful 
modern  church,  with  its  many  handsome  memorial  windows,

■ndth^its  conveniences  for  the  Sunday  school  and  the  other 
uses  of  the  church,  and  happy  that  it  was  theirs,  free  from 
debt,  and  that  all  had  been  done  so  ha^moniousl3^  The 
work  of  the  church  went  on  with  a  new  impetus.  The  Sun- 
day school  and  prayer  meeting  increased  greatly.  The 
ladies  assumed  the  cost  of  carrying  on  the  music  of  the 
church.  Seasons  of  religious  interest  arose,  from  time  to 
time,  in  which  many  were  added  to  the  church,  forty  at  one 
time,  and  lesser  numbers  at  others.  As  the  long  time  elders 
passed  away,  others  were  raised  up,  and  the  pastor  always 
had  a  wise  and  excellent  body  of  advisers  and  helpers.  The 
pastor  labored  on  until  he  entered  his  eightieth  year,  and 
then  the  Presbytery,  at  his  request,  dissolved  the  pastoral 
relation  and  placed  his  name  on  the  honorably  retired  list. 
This  pastorate  was  not  alone  of  the  congregation  of  the 
Union  Church,  but  of  the  city  of  Fort  Madison  and  of  the 
surrounding  country,  on  both  sides  of  the  Mississippi  River, 
where  much  pastoral  work  was  done.  The  pastor  per- 
formed more  than  three  hundred  and  fifty  marriage  cere- 
monies and  attended  more  than  a  thousand  funerals,  with 
\'isitations  of  the  sick.  As  his  services  were  desired,  he 
freely  gave  them  in  all  surroundings  and  circumstances.     On 


the  last  Sunday  of  his  pastorate,  twenty,  several  of  them 
among  the  business  men  of  the  city  with  their  wives,  with 
some  of  the  young  jjeople,  entered  into  the  communion  of 
the  church. 

In  April,  1904,  a  new  pastor.  Rev.  Harry  C.  Rogers,  a 
young  and  active  minister,  was  unanimouslj'  called  and  soon 
entered  upon  his  work,  with  great  acceptance.  To  add  to 
the  brightness  of  the  outlook,  a  lady  of  the  congregation, 
long  an  active  and  devoted  worker  in  many  ways,  gave  a 
suitable  and  valuable  manse  ready  for  the  use  of  the  pastor 
and  his  family.  As  we  look  back  on  the  old  and  homely 
church,  small  membership,  since  more  than  doubled,  the 
beautiful  modern  church  and  organ,  the  large  and  interested 
congregation,  the  fine  Sabliath  school  and  the  throng  of

church  to  benevolence  and  the  gifts  of  the  Ladies'  Mission- 
ary Society,  and  think  of  the  many  who  ha-\'e  died  full  of 
hope  and  cheer,  and  the  aged,  who  are  still  living,  who  look

Lord,  we  lift  up  our  anthem  of  joy  and  cry  aloud,  "What

HOthers  might  have  told  the  story  of  greater  sacrifices 
and  smaller  returns.  But  all  would  have  told  the  story  of 
a  thorny  pathway,  with  satisfaction  and  joy  at  the  end. 

Yet,  as  our  purpose  is  to  tell  in  brief  the  story  of  thir- 
teen hundred  ministers,  and  seven  hundred  and  fifty  churches 
we  must  draw  sparingly  on  our  wealth  of  material. 

The  majority,  with  all  their  zeal  and  success,  or  patient, 
unrequited  toil,  will  have  but  the  few  lines  of  facts  and  fig- 
ures— a  pittance  of  a  tribute  worthily  earned.  In  speaking 
of  these  pioneers  we  bear  in  mind  that  they  were  assisted 
and  followed  by  men  of  the  same  Apostolic  zeal  and  cour- 
age. The  material  for  self-sacrifice  and  martyrdom  still 
dwells  in  the  Church. 

And  here,  after  promising  a  chapter  on  "The  Pioneers," 
and  after  having  it  well   under  way,  we    are   constrained 


to  abandon  the  plan,  and  treat  our  entire  list  of  ministers 
in  alphabetical  order.  We  regret  the  brevity  enforced  by 
the  size  and  plan  of  our  book.  The  early  and  later  pioneers 
will  have  all  possible  consideration;  and  our  endeavor  will 
be  to  treat  all  with  fairness.  No  one  can  be  afforded  much 
space;  and  many  may  grieve  to  see  how  small  they  look  in 
so  large  a  crowd.  We  hope,  however,  that  all  may  comfort 
themselves  with  the  thought  that  to  be  numbered  with  so 
noble  an  army,  and  to  have  shared  in  so  glorious  a  work,  is 
worth  all  the  hardships  they  have  endured.  a 

So,  reserving ^the  personal  tributes  of  Harsha  and 
Stewart  and  McElroy  and  Bailey  for  their  proper  subjects, 
we  close  this  chapter  with  the  "Heart  to  Heart  Letter"  of 
Dr.  Bailey: 


A  Heart  to  Heart  Letter 


I  am  asked  for  a  heart  to  heart  communication  for  our 
Iowa  Presbyterian  History.  There  arises  before  me  in 
imagination  a  grand  and  noble  company  of  ministers,  elders 
and  laymen  all  over  our  beautiful  state,  who  have  made  our 


growth  and  prosperity  as  a  church  possible  by  their  constant, 
coasistent,  and  united  efforts,  each  standing  in  his  place 
steadfastly,  making  our  ranks  strong  and  our  progress  sure. 
I  cannot  enumerate  these  faithful  ministers  and  must  not

HISTORY 


discriminate  where,  almost  without  exception,  they  were 
all  so  good  and  true. 

During  my  sixteen  years  of  service  as  Synodical  Super- 
intendent of  Home  Missions,  I  came  into  close  touch  with 
these  men  and  women  (for  the  wives  of  our  Home  Mission- 
aries are  full  sharers  in  the  trials  and  triumphs  of  the  grand 
work  to  which  their  husbands  consecrate  themselves),  in 
the  midst  of  the  battle  for  Truth  and  Righteousness.  I  am 
persuaded  that  no  state  or  country  has  now  or  has  had  a 
more  ^miformly  earnest,  faithful  and  self-sacrificing  set  of 
missionary  workers  than  Iowa. 

True,  there  are  some  men  who  were  at  pivotal,  strategic 
points  in  the  development  of  the  work,  who  by  reason  of  their 
location  and  spirit  played  a  larger  part  than  (jthers  who  were 
just  as  true  on  more  quiet  fields. 

In  the  earliest  times  there  were  Bells,  Beamans,  Mc- 
Elroys,  Speeses,  Masons,  Phelpses,  Wellses,  Dodds,  Dodders, 
McCombs,  Dinsmores,  Joneses,  Rices,  Craigs,  Marshalls,  etc., 
who  lifted  the  blue  banner  of  our  church  along  the  borders 
and  at  strategic  points  in  the  interior.     So  there  were  Carrolls 


Campbells,  Bairds,  Osmonds,  Robinsons,  Hugheses,  Rus- 
tons,  Clelands,  Averys,  Burkhalters,  McRaes,  McClintocks, 
McAfees,  etc.,  to  take  up  the  well-begun  work  and  push  it 
forward  with  a  zeal  becoming  consecrated  men  that  they  all 
were. 

So  about  my  time  I  found  a  fine  company  of  younger 
men  like  Evans,  Luccock,  Stophlet,  Greene,  Knox,  Coyles, 
Berger  and  a  host  of  othei's  of  noble  spirit  and  power.  These 
men  made  my  work  easy  and  my  burdens  light  in  ways 
without  number,  God  knows,  though  the  world  may  never 
realize,  how  fully  such  men  as  these  held  up  the  hands  of 
the  Synodical  Missionary  and  made  our  church  strong.  To 
name  them  all  in  detaU  and  tell  of  their  virtues  and  graces 
would  impose  on  me  as  impossible  a  task  as  that  which 
confronted  the  author  of  the  Epistle  to  the  Hebrews  when 
in  the  eleventh  chapter  he  attempts  to  recount  the  triumphs 
of  faith.  I  dare  not  undertake  it.  Let  it  suffice  for  the 
present  to  thank  God  for  their  lives,  and  work  and  pray  that 
those  who  come  after  may  emulate  their  zeal  and  spirit  of 
faithfulness.  T.  S.  Bailey. 


EDUCATIONAL  INSTITUTIONS  •  19 

Part  III.     Our  Educational  Institutions 

Our  pioneers  illustrated  very  soon  their  zeal  for  education,  higher  education,  Christian  education.  Several  of 
our  early  ministers  established  schools,  out  of  which  came  a  part  of  their  support;  and  the  semi-wilderness  began  to  blos- 
som with  academies,  seminaries  and  colleges.  Several  of  these  were  useful,  and  some  famoius  for  their  day;  but  the  estab- 
lishment of  our  state  school  system  soon  removed  their  necessity  and  deprived  them  of  support.  The  story  of  those 
struggles  would  make  an  interesting  chapter;  but  we  must  limit  ourselves  to  existing  institutions. 

The  earliest  efforts  were  made  in  the  south-eastern  part  of  the  state;  but  the  rival  interests  waited  long  to  find  si 
center  where  success  was  possible,  in  Parsons  College.  Meanwhile  determined  and  self-sacrificing  effort  in  the  northeast 
section  centered  in  Hopkinton,  and  produced  Lenox  College,the  first  incorporated  in  the  state.  We  treat  the  colleges 
in  the  order  of  their  age. 


Lenox  College,  Hopkinton 


As  early  as  1854,  the  late  Henry  A.  Carter  cherished  In  March,  1856,  a  building  committee  was  appointed  to 

the  hope  of  establishing  a  college  at  Hopkinton.     His  ob-  proceed  to  the  erection  of  the  college  buOding.  Thus  the  first

colleges.     Tliis  object  was  approved  by  many  others  and  among  a  noble  and  sturdy  class  of  Scotch  Irish, 
there   finally   resulted    the   organization   of   a   Joint   Stock 

Company  to  erect  a  building  to  be  used  for  educational  In  June,  1856,  the  name  of  Bowen  Collegiate  Institute 

purposes.     The  date  of  the  formation  of  the  Joint  Stock  was  adopted  in  honor  of  C.  T.  Bowen  of  Chicago,  who  was  a 

Company  is  not  recorded  but  it  met  later  on  September  6,  liberal    contributor  to    the  building  fund,  and  in  the  fol- 

1855.  lowing  month  the  institution  was  incorporated. 


20 


HISTORY 


In  September,  1856,  the  members  of  the  first  Board  of 
Trustees  were  elected,  and  in  October  of  the  same  year  the 
first  articles  of  incorporation  were  recorded.  According  to 
these  Articles  of  Incorporation  the  institution  was  entitled 
from  the  begining  to  all  the  rights  and  privileges  of  a  col- 
lege. The  names  of  the  members  of  the  first  Board  of 
Trustees  were:  Henry  A.  Carter,  President;  W.  P.  Cun- 
ningham, Secretary;  Leroy  Jackson,  Treasurer;  James  Kil- 
patrick,  H.  R.  Jackson,  Asa  C.  Bowen,  Edmund  Davis, 
I.  Ijittlefield,  Christian  Meyers,  W.  A.  Roberts,  William 
Robinson,  William  Holt,  Jacob  Dieffenderfer,  William 
Morrison,  J.  B.  Whittaker  and  Jerome  Davis. 

In  the  autumn  of  1856,  the  foundation  of  the  center 
of  the  Main  Building  was  laid  and  the  roof  put  on  in 
1857.  This  was  a  two  story  brick  structure  forty  by 
sixty  containing  eight  rooms  built  in  the  center  of  a  four 
acre  plot  of  ground  donated  by  Mr.  H.  A.  Carter.  The 
campus  is  now  ornamented  witli  many  beautiful  maples 
and  stately  oaks  anil  elms,  mostly  planted  by  the  students 
in  those  early  days.  They,  the  men  and  women  of  today, 
whose  children  have  been  and  are  in  college,  on  their  return 
for  a  visit  often  point  with  delight  to  some  special  tree  as  a 
memento  of  those  famous  "tree  planting  days." 

The  people  were  conservative  but  determined.  Times 
were  hard.  The  peo])le  were  poor;  and  for  the  lack  of 
money  great  difficutly  was  experienced  in  finishing  the 
work  so  well  begun.     For  many  months  the  building  stood 


in  an  unfinished  condition.  In  the  meantime,  H.  A.  Carter, 
Leroy  Jackson,  and  James  Kilpatrick  contributed  quite  a 
sum  of  money  from  their  private  funds  toward  the  com- 
pletion. Finally  in  the  fall  of  1858  the  work  of  building 
was  resumed. 

A  touching  incident  of  these  early  days  ought  to 
be  related:  Mr.  H.  A.  Carter,  who  always  was  a  leader, 
and  gave  definiteness  to  the  whole  plan,  had  hauled  brick 
to  a  lot  adjoining  the  campus  with  which  to  erect  a  resi- 
dence for  his  own  use.  Mrs.  Carter  -was  rejoicing  as  the 
brick  was  being  hauled  for  her  new  home  to  think  that  she 
was  soon  to  leave  her  home  built  of  logs  and  spend  her  last 
happy  days  in  a  home  built  of  brick.  The  college  building 
had  reached  the  second  story,  and  for  lack  of  funds  stood 
unfinished.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Carter  realized  the  situation,  and 
they  in  self  sacrifice  and  tears  gave  the  brick  intended  for 
their  new  home.  These  brick  finished  the  second  story  of 
the  structure,  and  Mrs.  Carter  died  in  the  old  log  house. 
An  oil  painting  of  this  historic  log  house  was  painted  from 
memory  by  Mrs.  Jane  N.  Young  of  Minneapolis,  a  daughter, 
after  she  was  seventy  years  of  age,  and  presented  to  the 
college. 

Finally,  by  means  of  a  public  entertainment  and  festival, 
sufficientmoney  was  raised  to  prejjare  the  inside  of  the  building 
for  occupation;  and  on  September  1,  1859,  the  first  term 
of  the  Institute  began  "with  about  forty  scholars".  At  last 
victory  crowned  the  efforts  of  those  noble  men  and  women. 


EDUCATIONAL  INSTITUTIONS

Their  hopes  were  realized.  As  the  rural  schools  in  those 
early  days  were  inefficient  and  the  high  school  of  the  present 
day  was  unknown  the  attendance  at  the  institute  from  the 
beginning  was  very  good,  and  increased  rapitUy.  From 
the  records  we  learn  that  during  the  first  four  terms  196 
different  students  were  enrolled.  "The  largest  number 
of  students  in  any  single  term  before  the  Civil  War  was 
120." 

The  control  of  the  in.stitution  was  tentlered  the  Old 
School  Presbyterian  Synod  of  Iowa,  north,  in  1860,  and 
that  body  the  following  year  took  a  limited  supervision. 
In  1863  two  of  the  the  principal  stock-holders,  H.  A.  Carter 
and  Leroy  Jackson,  obtained  a  sheriff's  deed  for  the  prop- 
erty of  the  corporation,  after  the  trustees  concluded  that 
they  were  unable  to  meet  their  obligations  that  were  con- 
tracted in  building.  These  two  men  presented  the  entire 
college  property  to  the  Synod.  A  deed  was  signed  Feb- 
ruary 9,  1864,  Ijy  Henry  A.  Carter  and  Mary  Carter  con- 
veying the  same  to  the  Synod  with  the  condition  that  in 
case  the  property  shoukl  not  be  usetl  for  educational  pur- 
poses it  was  to  revert  to  the  town  of  Hopkinton.  At 
the  time  the  property  was  transferred  to  the  Synod 
in  1864  the  name  was  changed  from  Bowen  Collegiate 
Institute  to  Lenox  Collegiate  Institute  in  honor  of  James 
Lenox  of  New  York  City,  a  liberal  contributor  to, the  en- 
dowment fund. 

The  first  president  of  the  institution  was  the  Rev. 
Jerome  Allen,  Ph.  D.,  of  sacred  memory,  who  occupied  the 


chair  from  1859  to  1863,  and  for  two  years  additional  acted 
as  financial  agent  and  teacher  of  the  Natural  Sciences  and 
English  Literature.  Dr.  Allen  was  one  of  the  foremost 
educators  of  his  day.  He  became  Dean  of  the  Department  of 
Pedagogy  in  the  University  of  the  City  of  New  York  and 
filled  the  place  from  1889  to  the  time  of  his  death  in  Brook- 
lyn, May  26,  1894. 

Next  came  the  soldier-President,  the  Rev.  J.  W.  Mc- 
Kean,  A.  M.,  1863-1864.  One  morning  a  recruiting  officer 
attended  chapel  service,  and  after  a  strong  and  noble  appeal 
by  president  McKean  for  the  j'oung  men  to  obey  the  call  of 
President  Lincoln  to  enlist  in  the  army  of  the  Uuion,  he  in- 
formed the  students  that  a  recruiting  officer  was  present 
and  all  who  wished  to  enlist  should  arise.  All  arose  and  en- 
listed but  one,  and  he  was  too  young.  The  Faculty  and 
girl  students  were  in  tears,  and  President  McKean  closed 
the  tender  scene  by  saying,  "Well  boys,  if  all  of  you  are 
going,  I  am  going,  too."  President  McKean  resigned 
May  6,  1864,  and  entered  the  army  as  captain  of  a  company 
in  which  all  but  two  of  the  students  enlisted.  The  work 
of  the  institute  was  suspended  till  the  fall  term.  July  9, 
1864,  Captain  McKean  died  in  the  army  at  Memphis,  Tenn. 
A  fine  monument  on  the  college  campus  commemorates 
his  name,  and  the  names  of  others  who  gave  their  lives  for 
the  preservation  of  the  Union.  This  monument  at  a  cost  of 
over  $1500,  was  dedicated  November  17,  1865,  which 
makes  it  the  oldest  monument  in  Iowa,  and  probably  in  the 
entire  United  States  erected  in    honor    of    the  soldiers  of

the  Civil  War.  "In  all,  ninety-two  students  of  this  school 
enlisted  during  the  war,  a  larger  proportion  than  from  any 
other  school  in  this  state." 

For  a  brief  period,  from  July  8,  1864,  to  the  close  of 
the  Fall  term  of  the  same  year,  the  Rev.  James  D.  Mason 
was  President.  During  the  remaining  portion  of  that 
year  till  the  Spring  Term  of  1866  Dr.  Jerome  Allen  acted  as 
President  though  the  Rev.  Mr.  Mason  did  not  formally  resign 
till  October  1865.  Mr.  Mason  was  a  genial  gentleman 
prominently  identified  with  Presbyterianism  in  Iowa.  He 
died  in  Davenport,  Iowa,  January  8,  1890,  at  the  age  of 
seventy-seven. 

In  September,  1866,  the  Rev.  Samuel  Hodge,  D.  D., 
who  for  one  year  had  been  professor  of  Languages,  was 
chosen  President.  He  filled  the  office  with  becoming  dig- 
nity and  increasing  power  till  1882. 

December  5,  1870,  a  committe  was  appointed  to  take 
the  necessary  steps  to  incorporate  as  a  college  having  the 
right  to  confer  degrees,  etc.,  but  the  articles  of  incorpora- 
tion were  not  filed  for  record  till  October  11,  1873.  "As 
found  stated  in  these  the  object  of  the  corporation  is 
to  maintain  an  institution  of  learning  for  the  education  of 
both  sexes ;  the  grade  of  which  is  to  be  at  least  high  enough 
to  prepare  the  one  for  the  Sophomore  class  in  the  best  col- 
leges in  the  United  States;  and  the  other  for  the  second 
year  of  the  best  Ladies'  Seminary  in  the  country.  But  the 
school  may  be  raised  to  'any  higher  grade  whatever.'  In  accor- 
dance with  this  provision  its  grade  has  from  time  to   time 


been  made  higher.  It  shall  always  be  'under  Christian  in- 
fluence and  control'.  It  shall  have  power  'to  confer  any 
and  all  college  degrees,  to  grant  diplomas  and  certificates. 

"In  1875,  the  original  building  was  enlarged  by  a  wing 
fifty-five  by  thirty  feet.  This  additional  room  was  made  neces- 
sary by  the  increased  attendance  of  students,  the  number 
for  one  term  reaching  200.  This  convenient  improve- 
ment in  the  size  of  the  building  is  due,  for  the  most  part, 
to  the  liberality  of  the  citizens  of  Hopkinton  and  vicinity." 

Dr.  Hodge  died  in  West  Union,  Iowa,  January  4, 
1891. 

In  1882,  the  Trustees  departed  from  the  prevailing 
custom  and  elected  as  president,  a  layman,  in  the  person  of 
James  A.  Ritchey,  Ph.  D.  He  was  an  experienced  ed- 
ucator, and  for  six  years  labored  with  marked  success.  In 
1883,  the  curriculum  of  the  college  was  revised  and  greatly 
extended  and  provided  for  three  regular  courses  of  study 
as  well  as  for  many  electives.  Thus  the  institution  was 
made  equal  to  the  best  average  college  in  the  state.  This 
year  the  Helen  Finley  bequest  of  $5,000  was  made  as  an 
addition  to  the  permanent  funds.  During  this  year  also 
occured  the  death  of  Mr.  H.  A.  Carter  who  was  the  first 
President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  and  a  life-long  friend  and 
generous  supporter  of  the  college. 

In  1884,  the  Articles  of  Incorporation  were  so  amended 
as  to  change  the  name  from  Lenox  Collegiate  Institute  to 
Lenox  College.

In  1884,  the  quarter  Centennial  of  the  "college  was  cel- 
ebrated. An  unusually  large  number  of  people  were 
present.  The  Old  Students'  Association  organized  in  1883, 
made  its  first  public  appearance,  effected  this  general  re- 
union, and  contributed  much  to  the  social  and  literary  in- 
terest of  the  occasion. 

Dr.  Ritchey  now  lives  in  Oil  City,  Pa. 

During  the  summer  of  18S8  the  Board  of  Trustees 
chose  the  Rev.  Alexander  G.  Wilson,  D.  D.,  as  President. 
He  brought  not  only  dignity  but  also  capability  acquired 
by  a  long  training  in  professional  and  presidential  positions 
in  Parson's  College  and  Lake  Forest  University.  In  1889, 
the  foundation  of  Clarke  Hall,  a  girl's  dormitory,  was  laid 
and  in  the  fall  of  1890  the  building  was  ready  for  use.  Clarke 
Hall  was  erected  by  the  combined  efforts  of  the  Boaril  of 
Trustees,  former  students  and  alumni.  The  largest  share 
of  the  money  used  in  the  erection  of  the  building  was  left 
by  Charles  Clarke,  a  former  student  who  wished  to  do  some- 
thing for  the  college  where  he  had  received  his  training. 
Dr.  Wilson's  distinguished  gifts,  his  noble  christian  character, 
and  executive  powers  combined  to  make  him  a  model 
President,  and  it  was  a  great  loss  when  in  1894,  he  resigned 
to  accept  a  jjrofessorship  in  the  recently  established  Theo- 
logical Seminary  in  Omaha,  where  he  remained  until  his 
death  May  4,  1904. 

In  the  Spring  of  1894,  the  Rev.  Hugh  Robinson,  A.  M., 
a  son  of  Lenox  College  and  a  brilliant  preacher  was  chosen 
President.     He   remained   for   two    years    in    that    office. 


During  the  presidency  of  Rev.  Mr.  Robinson  considerable 
field  work  was  done,  and  resulted  in  increased  enrollment. 
At  the  Commencement  of  1895,  the  friends  who  gathered 
on  the  campus  to  enjoy  the  exercises  of  the  day  contributed 
$2500  toward  the  erection  of  a  new  building  to  be  used 
for  the  library,  gymnasium  and  literary  society  halls.  James 
McKean,M.  D.,  '80,  of  Chenung  Mai,  Laos,  a  Presbyterian 
Foreign  Missionary,  has  the  honor  of  making  the  first  gift, 
which  was  $100.  Operations  on  the  new  building  were 
suspended  at  the  close  of  the  summer  of  1S95.  In  the 
spring  of  1S96,  the  Rev.  Mr.  Robinson  resigned  to  take 
charge  of  a  church. 

Next  came  Andrew  G.  Wilson,  A.  M.,  who  was  chosen 
President  in  the  spring  of  1896.  He  too  is  an  alumnus,  of 
'80,  and  in  1884  laegan  to  teach  Natural  Science  in  Lenox 
College.  His  wide  scholarship  and  quiet  yet  forceful  man- 
ner qualified  him  for  the  position  he  held  till  the  spring  of 
1902.  In  1897,  though  the  times  were  hard  the  people  of 
Hopkinton  and  vicinity  loyally  responded  with  $5,000 
for  jjermanent  endowment.  It  was  during  President  Wil- 
son's time  that  the  new  building  used  for  library  and  gym- 
nasium was  completed.  Due  to  the  generous  gift  of  Judge 
F.  B.  Doolittle  of  Delhi,  Iowa,  the  building  was  named 
Doolittle  Memorial  Hall  in  honor  of  his  son,  F.  B.  Doolittle, 
of  sacred  memory.  In  1901,  Mr.  Wilson  resigned  but  re- 
mained at  his  ]3ost  of  duty  till  the  close  of  the  winter  term 
1901-2.

HISTORY 


In  February  1902,  Rev.  Francis  William  Grossman, D.  D. 
accepted  the  presidency.  During  his  incumbency  con- 
siderable progress  was  made  in  many  directions.  As  to 
material  improvements:  a  steam  plant  was  installed  in 
Clarke  hall  and  another  in  the  Main  Building  which  has  a 
capacity  sufficient  for  four  times  the  present  necessity,  new 
Christian  Association  Rooms  were  provided;  the  chapel, 
music  rooms,  stairways  and  halls,  laboratories,  literary  soci- 
ety halls,  and  Clarke  Hall  have  been  completely  remodeled 
at  a  cost  of  about  $10,000;  the  library  has  had  an  addition 
of  2,300  new  bound  volumes,  350  volumes  of  standard  mag- 
azines. A  conditional  offer  of  .|2,5,000  from  Mr.  Andrew 
Carnegie  toward  a  permanent  endowment  has  been  secured ; 
several  thousands  of  dollars  of  cash  from  generous  men  of 
means  have  been  received  by  the  treasurer,  besides  $5,000 
cash  from  Dr.  Finley's  estate. 

Notable  progress  in  the  curriculum  has  also  been  made. 
The  courses  have  been  revised  and  greatly  extended,  and 


there  has  been -a  decided  increase  in  the  requirements  both 
for  admission  and  graduation. 

Additions  were  made  to  the  faculty,  and  the  salaries  of 
most  of  the  professors  increased — in  one  instance  doubled. 
A  higher  standard  of  scholarship  has  been  the  result.  In 
December,  1904,  Lenox  College  was  admitted  to  the  College 
Section  of  the  Iowa  State  Teachers'  Association  and  the 
following  year  into  the  Presbyterian  College  Union  of  the 
Middle  West.  In  recent  years  there  has  been  .a  general  for- 
ward movement  in  the  institution  that  has  been  encourag- 
ing. The  writer  resigned  July  1,  1906,  to  take  effect 
August  31,1906. 

The  Rev.  E.  E

Coe   College,  Cedar  Rapids 


Coe  College  is  located  in  the  beautiful  city  of  Cedar  Rapids. 
The  city  is  an  important  railroad  center,  easily  accessible 
from  every  direction.  It  has  prosperous  industries  and 
large    commercial    interests.     It    is    distinguished    for    its 


churches,  schools,  libraries  and  benevolent  institutions,  and 
is  an  ideal  location  for  a  college. 

Coe  College  furnishes  a  wonderful  example  of  God's  use 
of  a  small  gift  to  accomplish  great  ends.      In  1853  Rev.  Wil- 


EDUCATIONAL  INSTITUTIONS 


25 


liston  Jones,  pastor  of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church  of  Cedar 
Rapids,  seeing  the  great  need  for  the  training  of  young  men 
and  women  for  the  great  mission  field  in  the  midst  of  which 
he  was  working,  secured  from  Daniel  Coe  of  Green  County, 
New  York,  $1,500  to  be  used  for  educational  purposes  in 
the  West.  This  money  was  entrusted  to  a  Board  of  Trustees 
which  had  been  organized  two  years  previously.  A  tract 
of  eighty  acres  of  land  adjacent  to  Cedar  Rapids  was  pur- 
chased. As  in  process  of  time  the  village  became  a  city, 
this  land  increased  in  value  greatly.  Today  a  small  frac- 
tion of  it,  still  held  by  the  college  as  campus  and  building 
lots,  is  alone  worth  more  than  a  hundred  times  the  original 
gift. 

For  many  years  after  the  date  of  Daniel  Coe's  gift  prom- 
inent citizens  of  Cedar_  Rapids  watched  the  growth  of  this 
foundation  with  jealous  care,  giving  their  best  efforts  in 
thought,  and  time  and  money  to  the  fostering  of  Christian 
education.  Among  these  pioneers  may  be  mentioned  Judge 
Greene,  Dr.  Ely,  and  Thomas  M.  Sinclair,  all  of  whom  have 
passed  awaj',  leaving  a  rich  heritage  to  their  successors. 
Such  men  as  Senator  Allison,  Secretary  Wilson,  Hon.  S.  L. 
Dows,  Mr.  J.  C.  Broeksmit,  Captain  J.  S.  Alexander,  Mr. 
W.  S.  Cooper  and  others  have  rendered  conspicuous  services 
as   Trustees. 

It  is  interesting  to  note  that  several  of  the  trustees  who 
are  now  carrying  the  heat  and  burden  of  the  day  in  connec- 
tion with  Coe  College,  represent  in  various  ways  these  pio- 
neer families.     Mr.  C.  B.  Soutter,  President  of  the  Board, 


and  Mr.  Robert  Sinclair,  son  of  that  high-souled  Christian, 
T.  M.  Sinclair,  actively  represent  that  family,  whose  bene- 
factions and  support  have  meant  so  much.  Mr.  George  B. 
Douglas,  Chairman  of  the  Finance  Committee,  whose  safe,  yet 
broad-minded  financial  policy  is  much  appreciated,  repre- 
sents another  pioneer  family.  Mr.  J.  S.  Ely,  Secretary  of 
the  Board;  Mr.  C.  G.  Greene,  and  Colonel  W.  G.  Dows,  have 
received  the  mantle  of  active  service  for  the  college  from 
worthy  fathers.  Last,  but  by  no  means  least,  the  Vice- 
President  of  the  Board,  Rev.  Dr.  E.  R.  Burklialter,  pastor 
of  the  First  Presbyterian  Church  of  Cedar  Rapids,  repre- 
sents that  line  of  Godly  men  who  have  ministered  in  the  liis- 
toric  church,  which  is,  in  a  sense,  the  mother  of  Coe  College. 
He  also  may  be  taken  as  representative  of  that  larger  group 
of  ministers  whose  labors  have  been  given  freely  to  the  build- 
ing up  of  this  Christian  institution. 

In  1881  Rev.  Stephen  Phelps,  D.D.,  was  called  from 
his  pastorate  to  organize  a  faculty  and  a  course  of  studj' 
preparatory  to  the  opening  of  a  full  college.  In  September 
of  that  year  the  college  opened  with  a  good  attendance, 
and  was  successful  from  the  start.  Dr.  Phelps  and  his 
faculty  did  good  foundation  work.  He  resigned  in  1886, 
and  was  succeeded  by  Dr.  Marshall,  who  was  President 
until  his  death,  in  1896.  Dr.  McCormick  came  to  the 
presidency  in  1897  aad  resigned  in  1904.  Dr.  William 
Wilberforce  Smith,  the  present  incumbent  in  the  office, 
entered  upon  his  duties  in  September  of  1905.

,      HISTORY 


During  this  quarter  of  a  century  of  college  history  there 
has  been  a  gradual  advance  along  all  lines.  A  growing  body 
of  Alumni,  an  increasing  constituency,  friends  of  influence 
and  financial  means  whose  interest  has  been  awakened,  and 
growth  in  material  equipment  have  been  the  controlling 
elements  in  this  advance. 

The  college  opened  with  a  single  building  half  the  size 
of  the  present  main  college  building.  There  are  today  upon 
the  campus  five  buildings:  The  main  college  building, 
Williston  Hall  for  j'oung  ladies,  Marshall  Hall  for  the  acad- 
emj',  an  athletic  field  house,  and  a  gymnasium. 

The  various  departments  are  well  equipped.  There  are 
thirteen  departments,  as  follows:  Economics  and  Sociol- 
ogy, Botany  and  Geology,  Greek,  History,  Chemistry, 
Modern  Language,  Education,  Latin,  Philosophj'  and  Psy- 
chology, Zoology,  Mathematics  and  Physics,  Bible,  English. 
Music  and  Elocution  are  also  provided  for.  The  faculty 
numbers  tliirty-one,  inclu<ling  thirteen  professors,  one  emer- 
itus professor,  four  associate  professors,  and  thirteen  assist- 
ants and  demonstrators.  Laboratories  for  Chemistry,  Bi- 
ology, Psychology  and  Physics  are  well  equipped.  The 
museum  of  Natural  History  is  one  of  the  best  in  the  state, 
and  is  rapidly  growing.  Library  facilities  are  supple- 
mented by  the  Masonic  and  puljlic  libraries  of  the  city. 

The  Christian  spirit  and  the  spiritual  life  of  the  institu- 
tion is  probably  its  most  distinguishing  mark.  In  the 
yearly  reorganization  of  college  life  each  fall  the  Christian 
Associations  are  given  the  field  until  every  student  is  ap- 


proached for  membership  in  the  associations  and  given 
an  opportunity  to  engage  in  active  Christian  work. 

Visiting  Secretaries  of  the  Young  Men's  and  Young 
Women's  Christian  A.ssociations  and  of  missionary  societies 
have  spoken  repeatedly  for  the  excejjtional  nature  of  the 
spiritual  life  and  influence  of  Coe.  Two  distinct  lines  char- 
acterize the  Christian  activity  of  the  student  body.  First, 
an  effort  is  made  to  reach  by  personal  contact  every  non- 
Christian  in  the  College;  second,  an  effort  is  made  to  start 
every  young  man  and  young  woman  into  active  Christian 
service.  How  far  these  ends  have  been  realized  is  shown 
somewhat  by  the  following  facts :  During  the  twenty-five 
years  of  the  existence  of  Coe  as  a  college  otily  about  twenty- 
five  students  have  been  graduated  who  did  not  go  out  pro- 
fessing Christians.  This  present  year  Coe  has  more  students 
who  have  given  themseh'es  to  the  work  of  the  ministry  and 
the  mission  field  than  an}'  Presbj-terian  college  of  the  LTnited 
States,  except  one  large  university  enrolling  four  times  as 
many  students  as  does  Coe.  The  indications  are  that  if 
theological  students  were  deducted  from  the  graduate  courses 
Coe  would  stand  first  among  Presbyterian  colleges  for  white 
students  in  number  of  candidates  for  the  ministry.  It  is  a 
well-known  fact  that  Iowa  has  been  the  only  Synod  of  our 
Church  that  has  turned  an  undiminished  sup]ily  of  young 
men  into  the  ministry.  The  character  of  these  young  men 
shows  that  they  are  the  ablest  our  ministry  is  receiving. 

There  are  a  number  of  elements  that  go  to  make  a  col- 
lege.    A  strong  college  must  contain  all  of  them  in  proper 


EDUCATIONAL  INSTITUTIONS 


27 


proportion.  These  elements  may  be  classed  in  some  such 
way  as  this:  Spirit  and  impetus  of  the  institution,  number 
and  quality  of  the  Faculty,  number  and  quality  of  the  stu- 
dent body,  an  able  President  and  Board  of  Trustees,  a  large 
and  loyal  constituency,  number  and  quality  of  buildings  and 
equipment,  endowment  sufficient  to  give  it  a  safe  measure 
of  support,  and  location. 

In  regard  to  the  spirit  and  impetus  of  Coe,  it  is  doubtful 
if  any  other  college  of  the  Presbyterian  church  has  made  such 
rapid,  yet  substantial  advancement  during  the  past  seven 
or  eight  years.  The  impetus  of  growth  given  the  institution 
largely  by  Dr.  McCormick  still  controls  the  spirit  of  the  col- 
lege. The  wholesome,  manly  and  sincere  spirit  of  the  stu- 
dent body  is  one  of  the  things  for  which  Coe  has  alway  been 
proud.  Everywhere  about  the  institution  there  is  a  distinct 
spirit  of  progression.  Coe  has  selected  from  the  ablest 
young  men  and  women  of  the  state  her  stutlent  body.  Coe's 
students  have  entered  the  largest  universities  of  this  coun- 
try, and  have  uniformly  won  high  rank  as  students.  Har- 
vard, Yale,  Columbia,  Johns  Hopkins,  Pennsylvania,  Prince- 
ton and  Clark,  all  have  Coe's  representatives  in  their  grad- 
uate courses. 

Coe  has  drawn  students  this  year  from  fourteen  dif- 
ferent states  and  four  foreign  countries.  An  examination 
of  the  lists  of  students  who  give  their  place  of  residence  as 
Cedar  Rapids  shows  that  nearly  one-half  of  these  are  people 
of  Iowa  and  other  states,  who  have  moved  to  Cedar  Rapids 
because  of  the  educational  facilities  of  the  college. 


As  to  the  number  of  members  of  its  Faculty,  Coe  is 
offering  a  larger  number  of  instructors  in  proportion  to  the 
number  of  students  than  almost  any  other  college  of  our 
denomination.  To  estimate  the  value  of  this  fact  to  the 
students  who  attend  Coe  would  be  impossible.  Perhaps 
Coe's  weakest  point  is  the  small  number  of  the  buildings 
upon  her  beautiful  campus,  but  in  this  direction  she  is  forg- 
ing rapidly  forward.  "The  construction  of  three  buildings 
within  the  last  five  years  and  the  early  completion  of  a  new 
Science  Hall  will  place  Coe  nearer  her  true  position  in  re- 
gard to  buildings.  Her  productive  endowment,  while  in- 
sufficient by  many  thousand  dollars  to  maintain  the  institu- 
tion, is  large  enough  to  show  that  Coe's  growth  is  safely 
assured.  More  than  $200,000  have  been  added  to  the  endow- 
ment fund  of  the  institution  within  the  last  four  years, 
an  increase  very  largely  made  possible  by  the  $25,000  gift  of 
Mr.  Ralph  Voorhes,  of  New  Jersey. 

Coe's  graduates  are  distributed  over  twenty-seven 
states  of  the  Union  and  five  foreign  countries.  Forty-two 
of  her  graduates  have  gone  into  the  ministry,  to  the  mission 
field,  or  other  active  Christian  work.  Forty-seven  of  them 
are  teachers,  and  the  remainder  are  scattered  among  various 
occupations  and  professions.     Eight  are  in  the  foreign  field. 

Coe  College  looks  forward  hopefully  to  future  growth 
and  usefulness.  She  has  proved  her  right  to  exist.  She 
feels  the  impulse  to  expansion  born  of  conscious  worth  to 


28 


HISTORY 


the  Church  and  State.  Hampered  at  every  step  by  lack  of 
funds,  she  has  yet  displayed  a  vigor  that  could  only  come 
from  devotion  of  her  friends.     Noble  men  have  labored  and 


sacrificed  in  the  spirit  of  the  Master  in  order  that  this  insti- 
tution might  do  the  work  that  God  has  laid  upon  her.  See 
Picture  Gallery  pp.  92-3. 


Parson's  College,  Fairfield 


Parsons  College  was  founded  by  a  Christian  business 
man,  Lewis  B.  Parsons,  Sr.  His  life  was  a  model  of  thrift 
and  systematic  beneficence.  In  his  will,  which  he  left  at 
his  death,  Dee.  21,  1855,  we  may  read  the  character  and  pur- 
pose of  the  man  whose  spirit  has  given  tone  to  the  insti- 
tution he  founded.  It  may  also  prove  serviceable  as  an 
ideal  for  Christian  givers  in  this  generation. 

Mr.  Parsons  believed  that  good  education,  with  "habits 
of  industrj^  economy  and  liberality"  were  the  best  legacies 
of  parents  to  their  children.  He,  therefore,  wrote  in  his 
will;  "Having  long  been  of  the  opinion  that  for  useful- 
ness, prosperity  and  happiness  of  children,  a  good  moral 
and  intellectual,  or  business  education,  with  moderate 
means,  was  far  better  than  unlimited  wealth,  I  herein  dis- 
pose of  my  estate  mainly  to  such  benevolent  objects  and 
enterprises  as  I  think  will  conduce  to  the  greatest  good." 
The  "greatest  good"  seems  to  have  been  prominently 
identified  in  his  mind  with  the  cause  of  Christian  education. 
The  adecfuate  reasons  for  this  conviction  are  set  forth  in  the 
following  section  of  his  will,  in  which  he  speaks  of  "having 


long  been  convinced  that  the  future  welfare  of  our  country, 
the  permanence  of  its  institutions,  the  progress  of  our  divine 
religion  and  an  enlightened  Christianity  greatly  depended  up- 
on the  general  diffusion  of  education  under  correct  moral 
and  religious  influences." 

This  conception  of  the  benevolent  duties  of  a  Christian 
man  furnishes  a  much-needed  lesson.  Tithing  became  a 
deep-seated  conviction  in  the  mind  of  Mr.  Parsons  even 
under  the  stress  of  reverses.  So  thoroughly  did  this  model 
philanthropist  believe  in  the  blessedness  of  giving  that  he 
regularly  tithed  a  clerkship  salary  of  $250  a  year;  and  with 
returning  prosperity  exceeded  the  Scriptural  tithe  to  the 
extent  of  appropriating  $150  a  year  to  each  of  the  follow- 
ing enterprises,  the  American  Bible  Society,  American  Tract 
Society,  the  Home  Mission  Society  and  the  American  Board 
This  he  did  when  his  yearly  income  did  not  exceed  $1,600, 
and  his  family  numbered  twelve  persons.  HLs  continued 
prosperity  and  his  beautiful  life  give  added  proof  that  "the 
Lord  loveth  a  cheerful  giver."

The  depreciation  of  values  incident  to  the  Civil  War 
deferred  the  establishment  of  the  college  for  twenty  years 
after  the  death  of  Mr.  Parsons.  It  was  not  until  Feb.  24, 
1875,  that  the  articles  of  incorporation  were  finally  signed 
and  Parsons  College  was  located  at  Fairfield,  a  stronghold 
of  Presbyterianism  in  Iowa. 

Parsons  may  be  said  to  be  a  lineal  descendant  of  the 
first  Presbyterian  college  in  Iowa,  begun  at  Yellow  Springs 
in  the  earlj^  part  of  the  last  century.  This  college  was  well 
thought  of  by  Mr.  Parsons,  and  he  was  on  his  way  to  visit  it 
when  his  last  sickness  put  an  end  suddenly  to  his  journey. 
The  war  proved  fatal  to  that  school,  for  upon  the  preaching 
of  a  patriotic  sermon  by  its  president,  at  the  opening  of  the 
war,  all  the  male  students  enlisted  before  the  following  Mon- 
day. 

In  deciding  upon  the  location  of  the  college  the  execu- 
tors of  Mr.  Parson's  will  were  led  to  choose  Fairfield  from 
the  fact  that,  in  addition  to  the  offer  of  most  liberal  financial 
assistance,  there  was  appreciation  on  the  part  of  the  citizens 
of  the  religious  significance  of  the  movement.  In  the  meet- 
ing to  final!}'  decide.  Elder  William  Elliott,  of  the  Fairfield 
Church  opened  the  deliberations  with  prayer. 

In  the  spirit  of  its  founder,  Parsons  College  has  always 
combined  practical  business  wisdom  and  careful  manage- 
ment with  an  unbounded  enthusiasm  for  the  things  of  mind 
and  spirit.  Debts  have  very  seldom  accinuulated ;  they  have 
never  reached  large  proportions,  and  such  as  have  been  in- 
curred for  short  periods  have  been  promptly  discharged. 


It  has  always  been  the  good  fortune  of  the  college  to  profit 
through  the  wise  advice  and  assistance  of  Christian  business 
men.  Brevet  Major  General  Lewis  B.  Parsons,  son  of  the 
founder,  is  chief  among  such  friends  and  benefactors.  His 
remarkable  ability  for  doing  things,  manifested  during  his 
brilliant  service  in  the  Civil  War,  he  has  devoted  to  the  in- 
terests of  the  college  time  and  again  to  its  great  benefit. 
The  co-o])eration  of  such  a  man  is  priceless. 

Colonel  Charles  Parsons,  brother  of  General  Parsons, 
and  some  time  president  of  the  State  National  Bank  of  St. 
Louis,  was  another  business  man  to  whom  the  college  owed 
mucli.  Like  his  father,  he  was  successful  in  business,  cul- 
tured in  taste,  and  public  spirited.  The  college  still  mourns 
his  death  which  occurred  Sept.  15,  1905. 

Mr.  Thomas  D.  Foster,  of  Ottumwa,  la.,  as  Vice-Presi- 
dent of  the  Board  of  Trustees,  is  another  one  of  those  Chris- 
tian business  men  whose  living  interest  in  Christian  educa- 
tion has  contributed  much  to  the  success  of  Parsons  College. 
His  devotion  to  the  college  is  such  as  a  man  would  take  in 
his  own  private  business. 

And  what  shall  be  said  of  the  years  of  faithful  servdce 
rendered  this  institution  by  Rev.  Willis  G.  Craig,  D.D., 
L.L.D.?  Instrumental  in  organizing  the  college,  he  has 
been  president  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  during  the  almost 
thirty-one  years  of  the  life  of  the  school.  Such  a  term  of 
service  is  in  itself  remarkable,  and  in  it  one  may  see  the 
fidelity  and  wisdom  with  which  the  office  has  been  ad- 
ministered.

HISTORY 


The  institution  has  been  favored  in  its  leadership.  Rev. 
John  Armstrong,  D.  D.,  as  financial  agent  brought  it  funds 
and  friends.  He  gave  largely  of  his  own  means.  But  he 
gave  his  heart  and  his  life.  As  first  President  he  saw  the 
first  graduating  class  of  16  nearing  their  commencement, 
when  he  was  called  home.  His  monument  on  the  Campus 
is  a  fitting  memorial  of  what  he  did,  and  what  he  was. 

The  leader  fallen  in  the  prime  of  life,  it  was  appropriate 
that  the  veteran  Dr.  E.  J.  Gillett,  long  before  President  of 
Yellow  springs  College,  should  send  out,  in  1879,  the  first 
class  of  the  new  college.  From  that  day  on  the  college  has 
moved  steadily  upward.  That  indefatigable  worker,  Dr.  T. 
L.  Ewing,  did  double  work  for  church  and  college  till  1889. 
Dr.  Ambrose  C.  Smith  bore  the  burden  from  1890  to  1896. 
The  young  aud  vigorous  D.  E.  Jenkins  served  till  called  to 
Omaha  Theological  Seminary,  in  1902;  and  Dr.  F.  W.  Hinitt 
left  the  college  in  1904  for  a  presidency  in  Danville,  Ky. 

Rev.  Willis  E.  Parsons,  D.D.,  the  seventh  President  of 
the  College  is  now  in  the  second  year  of  service  in  the  school 
which  his  grandfather  founded.  When  President  Hinitt 
resigned  to  accept  a  like  position  at  Central  University, 
the  Committee  appointed  to  nominate  a  successor,  turned 
with  one  mind  to  Dr.  Parsons.  His  acceptance  of  the  call 
gave  general  satisfaction  to  all  friends  of  the  college. 

Dr.  Parsons  was  born  on  Iowa  soil,  but  most  of  his  life 
was  spent  in  Michigan,  where  he  received  his  school  and  col- 
lege education.  He  is  an  alumnus  of  Olivet  College  and  of 
Princeton  seminary.     After  twenty  years  of  service  in  the 


ministry  in  two  churches  he  came  to  his  new  work.  Pres- 
ident Parsons  has  the  four  qualifications  of  a  college  presi- 
dent: Christian  character,  faith  in  young  people,  the  tastes 
of  a  scholar,  and  administrative  ability  of  a  high  order. 
The  friends  of  the  institution  are  expecting  great  things 
from  him,  and  will  not  be  disappointed.  Under  his  leader- 
ship, or  leadership  like  his.  Parsons  College  has  an  assured 
future  among  the  best  Christian  institutions  of  learning. 

The  inner  workings  of  the  college  have  been  marked 
by  a  general  advance  toward  the  realizition  of  larger  things. 
The  beginnings  were  of  course  small.  Work  commenced 
immediatel}^  after  the  school  was  incorporated,  and  reci- 
tations were  held  in  the  home  of  the  President.  The  follow- 
ing summer  work  was  commenced  on  a  building  for  recita- 
tion purposes.  A  few  years  later  $19,000  was  expended  in 
erecting  the  center  and  wing  of  a  building  to  be  completed 
in  the  future.  New  life  was  given  the  college  in  1891,  when 
a  fund  of  $75,000  was  raised.  This  secured  the  completion 
of  Ankeny  Hall,  the  main  building,  and  added  a  snug  sum 
to  the  growing  endowment.  In  1895  the  endowment  was 
further  increased  by  the  gift  of  $25,000  left  by  Rev.  Thomas 
H.  Skinner,  D.D.,  LL.D.,  professor  in  McCormick  Theological 
Seminary.  The  will  of  Mr.  Calvin  Ballard,  of  Winterest, 
Iowa,  in  1899,  made  possible  the  erection  of  Ballard  Hall, 
the  beautiful  dormitory  for  women. 

The  uninterrupted  and  rather  remarkable  growth  of  the 
college  was  checked  by  the  burning  of  Ankeny  Hall  on  the 
night  of  August  19,  1902.     This  was  a  serious  blow,  and 


EDUCATIONAL  INSTITUTIONS

hearts  were  heavy.  No  one  dared  predict  the  splendid  re- 
covery from  loss  which  was  actually  witnessed  during  the 
two  years  immediately  following.  The  disaster  seems  to  have 
been  the  signal  for  a  still  more  vigorous  forward  movement. 
Within  a  short  time  after  the  fire  two  completely  equipped 
modern  structures  replaced  the  ruined  building. 

Foster  Science  Hall  is  a  model  of  its  kind.  The  perfec- 
tion of  its  appointments  for  the  study  of  physics,  chemistry 
and  biology  make  it  a  joy  to  teacher  and  student.  The  build- 
ing contains  a  vivarium,  dark-room,  four  lecture-rooms 
with  demonstration  desks,  and  nine  completely  equipped 
laboratories  for  various  branches  of  scientific  work.  An 
engine  and  lathe,  in  the  basement,  furnish  the  means  for 
constructing  certain  pieces  of  new  apparatus.  The  facil- 
ities in  biology  and  chemistry  have  raised  the  premedical 
work  to  the  standard  required  by  the  best  medical  schools. 

Fairfield  Hall,  the  gift  of  the  citizens  of  Fairfield,  is  the 
new  building  used  for  general  collegiate  work. 

There  is  in  process  of  erection  a  library  building,  the 
gift  of  Mr.  Andrew  Carnegie  and  Mr.  Foster,  which  will  be 
thoroughly  modern  and  up-to-date,  and  the  most  beautiful 
building  on  the  campus. 

By  the  will  of  the  late  Colonel  Charles  Parsons,  880,000 
will  come  to  the  college  to  be  added  to  the  permanent  endow- 
ment fund.  This  makes  the  gifts  from  all  sources  to  the  col- 
lege the  past  year  $102,800.  This  will,  in  part,  enable  the 
college  to  meet  the  enlarging  demands  incident  to  the  es- 


tablishment of  new  professorships  and  the  maintenance  of 
new  buildings. 

With  long-continued  advance  in  material  things  there 
has  come  a  corresponding  advance  in  the  realization  of  the 
purpose  to  give  a  thorough  education  in  an  institution 
which  represents  the  essentials  of  the  Christian  faith.  The 
first  catalogue,  issued  in  1876,  contains  the  name  of  but  one 
college  student,  a  sophomore,  while  there  were  sixty-five 
enrolled  in  the  academy.  The  day  of  senior  classes  soon 
came.  In  1880  a  class  of  sixteen  was  graduated  under  the 
presidency  of  Dr.  Gillett,  who  had  been  the  President  of 
Yellow  Springs  College.  At  the  present  time  the  enrollment 
of  the  college  departments  exceed  that  of  the  academy. 
Graduating  classes  have  varied  from  six  to  twenty-four. 

It  is  always  interesting  to  learn  what  the  men  and  women 
who  have  been  graduated  from  a  college  have  done  in  the 
world.  It  is  specially  interesting  to  see  what  they  have  done 
for  the  "kingdom."  For  this  showing  Parsons  is  specially 
grateful,  for  of  her  324  alumni  40  per  cent,  of  the  men  have 
entered  the  Christian  ministry,  and  nineteen  have  gone  as 
foreign  missionaries.  Eighteen  per  cent,  have  become  bus- 
iness and  professional  men  and  30  per  cent,  of  the  total  list 
of  alumni  have  become  teachers. 

Such  is  the  record,  and  such  are  the  prospects  of  Par- 
sons College,  at  the  end  of  its  thirt3--first  year,  and  with  these 
it  comes  before  the  great  company  of  Presbyterians  and  asks 
for  their  prayers,  their  gifts  and  their  children.  See  Picture 
Gallery  pp.  76-7.

HISTORY 


Buena  Vista  College,  Storm  Lake 


Buena  Vista  College,  like  some  other  institutions  of  its 
kind,  had  its  beginnings  in  a  history  prior  to  that  of  Buena 
Vista  College  proper.  In  October,  1883,  the  Calliope  Acad- 
emy was  taken  under  the  care  of  the  Ft.  Dodge  Presbytery 
which  then  constituted  the  Northwest  quarter  of  the  state 
of  Iowa.  Two  years  later  the  school  was  moved  to  Ft. 
Dodge  and  given  the  name  of  the  Ft.  Dodge  Collegiate  Insti- 
tute. The  Rev.  F.  L.  Kenyon  was  chosen  president  and 
served  in  this  capacity  until  the  Spring  of  1889.  He  was 
succeeded  by  the  Rev.  L.  Y.  Hayes.  Two  years  later  it  was 
decided  that  the  school  would  not  be  a  success  as  then  locat- 
ed. Accordingly  the  Ft.  Dodge  and  Sioux  City  Presbyteries, 
which  had  resulted  from  a  division  of  the  old  Ft.  Dodge 
Presbytery  appointed  a  joint  commission  of  twelve  men  to 
take  into  consideration  a  new  location  and  the  reorgan- 
ization of  the  school.  After  much  careful  and  prayerful 
consideration  of  a  number  of  propositions  from  different 
towns  the  commission  met  in  Storm  Lake  on  the  8th  of 
July,  1891,  for  final  action;  and  on  the  following  day  perfect- 
ed the  organization  and  incorporation  of  Buena  Vista  Col- 
lege, and  located  it  at  Storm  Lake,  Iowa.  The  Synod  of 
Iowa  unanimously  adopted  it  as  a  Synodical  institution  at 
its  regular  meeting  the  following  fall.  It  is  under  the  gen- 
eral supervision  of  Synod  and  by  charter  provision  its  Board 
of  Trustees  are  elected  by  Synod — two-thirds  of  whom  must 
be  members  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  good  and  regular 


standing. ^Before  the  first  year  had  closed  of  j^what  we  are 
accustomed  to  think  of  as  Buena  Vista  College,  President 
Hayes  died  and  it  became  necessary  to  look  for  a  successor. 
The  choice  fell  upon  the  Rev.  J.  M.  Lynn  who  was  elected 
president  June  17th,  1892. 

At  the  time  of  the  founding  of  the  college  under  its 
present  charter  a  site  had  been  donated  by  the  citizens  of 
Storm  Lake  and  monev  enough  had  been  secured  from  the 
sale  of  lots  to  erect  a  handsome  and  substantial  structure 
of  pressed  bricks  and  stone  for  a  main  college  building.  The 
cost  of  this  building,  including  heating  plant  and  furniture, 
was  over  $27,500.  This  building  was  erected  during  the 
summer  of  1892.  During  the  same  summer  three  more 
buildings  were  erected  for  college  use,  viz.,  a  Ladies'  Cottage, 
a  Boys'  Dormitory  and  a  President's  Home.  The  two 
former  were  built  by  a  company  of  Storm  Lake  men  and  the 
latter  by  President  Lynn  with  the  understanding  that  the 
college  would  secure  the  money  to  take  the  buildings  off 
their  hands  as  soon  as  possible.  President  Lynn  served  the 
school  for  two  years  when  he  resigned.  Rev.  John  MacAllister 
pastor  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  of  Storm  Lake,  was  re- 
quested by  the  Executive  Committee  to  act  as  President  pro 
tempore,  which  position  he  filled  throughout  the  year  in  con- 
nection with  his  pastorate.  On  July  31st,  1895,  Prof.  Willis 
Marshall,  Principal  of  Hungerford  Academy,  Springville, 
Utah,  was  elected  president.  _  President  Marshall  continued

with  the  school  for  two  years.  Rev.  Harvey  Hostetler  was 
chosen  to  succeed  him  at  an  adjourned  meeting  of  the  Board 
of  Trustees  held  on  June  2Sth,  1897.  After  three  years  of 
hard  and  faithful  work  for  the  institution,  President  Hos- 
tetler tendered  his  resignation.  On  the  7th  of  August,  1900, 
the  Rev.  E.  E.  Reed  was  elected  president  and  began  his 
work  in  connection  with  the  opening  of  the  new  school  year. 
Prior  to  this  time  the  school  had  no  endowment  and  like 
most  young  institutions  of  its  kind  its  struggles  had  been 
between  life  and  death.  President  Reed  took  up  his  work 
with  the  intention  of  raising  an  endowment.. 

By  May  20th,  1902,  over  $51,000  had  been  subscribed 
for  this  purpose,  including  the  money  for  the  purchasing  of 
the  President's  Home.  Prior  to  this  the  school  had  done 
only  partial  collegiate  work.  The  faculty  was  enlarged, 
the  science  department  equipped  for  advanced  work,  and 
the  junior  year  added  to  the  course.  The  following  year 
the  senior  work  was  carried  and  in  June,  '04,  a  college  class 
of  four  was  graduated.  In  1905  another  class  of  four  was 
turned  out  and  in  1906  a  class  of  eight.  In  the  late  fall  of 
1904  president  Reed  was  taken  sick  and  was  laid  aside 
from  his  work  till  September  of  the  following  year.  During 
the  past  few  months  a  movement  for  another  $50,000  of  en- 
dowment was  started,  and  at  that  present  date,  June  1, 1906, 
subscriptions  amounting  to  $22,500  have  been  secured. 
During  the  past  few  years  much  attention  has  been  given  to 


building  up  the  library  and  to  teaching  the  students  the  use 
of  a  library.  In  five  years'  time  the  number  of  books  drawn 
from  the  library  increased  from  less  than  100  to  1500.  A 
Y.  M.  and  a  Y.  W.  C.  A.  were  organized  among  the  students 
on  the  Day  of  Prayer  for  Colleges,  January,  1901.  These 
associations  have  steadily  grown  in  numbers  and  efficiency. 
During  the  past  year  most  of  the  students  in  regular  attend- 
ance upon  the  college  have  been  members  of  these  associa- 
tions. Recently  a  Volunteer  Band  has  been  organized 
among  the  students  and  for  the  past  several  months  every 
student  in  the  college  department  has  been  a  professing 
Christian  and  a  church  member.  The  college  spirit  is  abroad 
among  the  students  to  a  delightful  degree,  the  circle  of  friends 
for  the  school  has  been  growing  both  in  Iowa  and  in  the  East 
and  the  outlook  for  Buena  Vista  was  never  brighter  than  at 
the  present. 

During  the  summer  of  1906  President  Reed  resigned 
his  position  at  the  head  of  Buena  Vista  College  and  accepted 
the  presidency  of  Lenox  College.  After  Commencement 
and  before  closing  his  work  with  Buena  Vista  he  secured 
$5,000  to  pay  for  the  Music  Hall  and  the  balance  of  indebted- 
ness on  the  College  Press,  besides  a  considerable  amount 
towards  current  expenses.  In  all  Dr.  Reed  raised  for  this 
school  in  cash  and  pledges  over  One  Hundred  Thousand 
Dollars  during  the  six  vears  of  his  presidency.  See  Picture

HISTORY 


Corning  Academy,  Corning 


We  give  space  to  this  young  survivor  of  our  academies. 
Its  field  is  the  south-western  quarter  of  the  state.  It  is  full 
of  faith  and  promise,  and  may  yet  illustrate  the  power  of  pre- 
destination and  perseverance,  and  blossom  out  as  a  College. 

Corning  Academy  owes  its  origin  to  two  causes — an 
earnest  desire  on  the  part  of  the  citizens  of  Corning  to  es- 
tablish an  institution  for  higher  education  in  their  midst  and 
an  equally  strong  desire  on  the  part  of  the  members  of  the 
Council  Bluffs  Presbytery  to  found  an  academy  in  this  part 
of  the  state. 

In  the  spring  of  1885  the  citizens  of  Corning  under  the 
leadership  of  Rev.  S.  M.  Johnson,  pastor  of  the  Presby- 
terian church,  determined  to  secure  if  possible  the  location 
of  such  an  academy.  The  effort  was  heartily  seconded  by 
Presbytery  and  also  the  Board  of  Aid  for  Colleges  and  Acad- 
emies. The  sum  of  $18,000  was  subscribed  by  the  citizens 
of  Corning  and  Adams  county;  the  largest  subscription  be- 
ing that  of  Judge  Barnett,  of  Carbon,  whose  generous  gift  of 
$4,000  first  a.ssured  the  success  of  the  enterprise.  About 
$2,000  was  secured  from  different  churches  and  individuals 
in  the  Presbytery  which  made  a  building  fund  of  $20,000. 
The  site  purchased  was  the  property  of  Mr.  Crippin,  whose 
residence  is  now  the  home  of  the  Principal. 

The  school  was  organized  on  the  6th  of  October,  1885, 
with  Rev.  S.  L.  McAfee  as  Principal.  Mr.  George  W.  Frank 
gave  the  use  of  a  part  of  the  Bank  Building,  which  is  now 


the  Bacon  Hotel,  where  the  school  was  held  for  the  first 
year  and  the  first  term  of  the  second  year.  The  total  en- 
rollment of  the  first  year  in  the  Literary  Department  was 
forty-two.  At  the  close  of  the  Academic  year,  June  16, 
1886,  the  corner  stone  of  the  new  building  was  laid  with  ap- 
propriate ceremonies.  Mr.  McAfee  continued  his  efficient 
and  faithful  work  as  head  of  the  institution  until  June,  1889, 
when  he  resigned  to  accept  a  position  in  Park  CoUege. 
Nineteen  students  were  graduated  during  his  leadership. 
From  September,  1889,  till  June,  1890,  Mr.  Clark, 
a  graduate  of  Princeton  was  acting  Principal,  at  which 
time  Rev.  T.  D.  Ewing,  D.  D.,  former  President  of 
Parson's  College,  was  elected.  He  took  charge  of  the 
work  at  once  and  his  eminent  fitness  for  the  position 
was  soon  evident.  The  attendance  increased,  new  life  was 
infused,  and  the  school  became  an  important  factor  of  Pres- 
byterianism  in  southwestern  Iowa.  Dr.  Ewing  was  an  ex- 
cellent educator  and  always  insisted  on  having  teachers  who 
were  college  graduates.  His  executive  ability  was  of  the 
highest  order,  and  under  his  administration  the  Academy 
attained  its  greatest  prosperity.  The  moral  and  religious 
tone  of  the  school  was  always  strong.  The  influence 
of  Dr.  Ewing  will  long  be  felt  in  this  part  of  the  state,  and

Dr.  Ewing  died  July  31, 1905,  and  Mr.  Frederick  Currens 
was  elected  Principal.  The  present  year  shows  a  large 
increase  in  attendance,  being  twice  that  of  last  year.  Much 
has  been  done  by  way  of  general  improvements — new  fur-

Dubuque 


People  of  a  far  country  and  a  strange  language  may,  with 
infinite  patience,  fit  themselves  into  a  new  community  and 
learn  the  strange  language,  as  their  children  bring  it  in 
from  street  and  school.  But  when  more  than  a  hundred 
thousand  a  year  are  bringing  the  same  language  to  this  coun- 
try they  do  not  sit  down  among  us  in  single  families.  They 
come  in  companies,  they  congregate  in  the  cities,  they 
enter  the  richest  regions  of  our  land  and  sweep  them  clean 
of  race  and  language. 

This  fact  presents  the  great  problem  of  our  cities  and 
even  of  large  portions  of  our  land.  The  Germans  are 
second  to  none  in  the  wealth  of  brain  and  brawn  and  in- 
telligence they  bring.  And  largely  they  bring  us  the  rel- 
ligion  of  the  Reformation.  Generally  they  will  speak  the 
language  of  the  fatherland  until  they  die.  So  they  must 
have  an  educated  ministry  of  their  own. 

The  first  man  to  discover  and  utilize  this  idea  was 
Rev.  Adrian  Van  Vliet,  who  in  1852,  took  charge  of  the 


varnish  and  paper  in  the  latter.  Apparatus  has  been  added 
in  the  science  department  and  gymnasium.  Additions  have 
also  been  made  to  the  library.  The  course  of  study  has  been 
strengthened,  and  is  of  an  exceptionally  high  standard. 
The  interest  of  the  citizens  of  Corning  and  vicinity  has 
increased  greatly  and  the  prospect  of  a  bright  future  lies  be- 
fore the  Academy.     (See  gallery  page  111) 

Seminary 

Independent  German  Church  of  Dubuque  which  had  been 
organized  on  Christmas  day,  1847.  ThLs  man,  born  in  Hol- 
land and  a  tailor  by  trade,  was  taught  of  God,  from  whom 
rather  than  from  human  teachers  he  received  his  fitting 
and  commission.  With  a  zeal  born  of  God  he  gave  his  spare 
time  in  Dubuque  to  giving  the  Gospel  to  the  Hollanders 
and  Germans  in  their  homes.  His  wonderful  success  in 
soul-winning  led  to  his  call  to  the  ministry,  and  to  the 
founding  of  a  school.  In  his  study  he  began  the  work 
of  the  seminary  that  was  to  be;  and  this  in  1852.  He 
trained  young  Germans  as  missionaries  to  their  countrymen. 

The  school  continued  in  his  study  until  in  1871.  In  time 
a  valuable  site  was  purchased  and  a  building  provided 
which  did  good  service  for  more  than  thirty  j-ears. 

The  character  of  the  school  is  unique.  The  young 
men  come  from  the  plow  and  from  the  bench  without 
in  some  instances  even  a  common  school  education.  This 
institution  has  to  be  a  school,  academy,  college  and  theo-

HISTORY 


logical  seminary.  The  course  has  been  arranged  with  a 
view  to  meet  this  need,  and  scholarly  professors  adapt 
themselves  as  the  occasion  requires  to  theological  discus- 
sions or  to  primary  instruction,  in  order  that  the  Ger- 
man candidate  may  be  thoroughly  equipped  for  the  ministry. 
And  the  results  justify  the  sacrifice.  The  farmer  lad  or 
young  mechanic  is  transformed  into  a  cultured  and  pains- 
taking student,  fitted  to  stand  the  severest  tests  in  the  pres- 
byterial  examinations  alongside  of  the  graduates  of  any 
other  seminary.  Thus  the  school  is  no  experiment,  but 
has  proved  its  ability  to  educate  an  efficient  ministry. 

The  distinct  aim  of  the  school  is  German  evangelization. 
We  must  emphasize  this  fact.  In  the  stress  of  the  great 
problem  of  foreign  evangelization  the  special  character  of 
this  work  must  not  be  forgotten.  The  school  stands  ready 
to  receive  young  men  of  other  nationalities,  and  already 
the  Bohemians  and  Hollanders  are  here.  The  race  since 
the  confusion  of  speech  has  been  many  tongued,  and 
the  problem  of  the  church  is  not  to  save  a  favored  part 
of  the  race,  but  to  bring  the  whole  race  to  Christ,  to 
teach  all  Nations.  The  kingdom  of  Christ  is  the  universal 
kingdom  ;and  the  Church  trumphant  is  "a  great  multitude 
which  no  man  can  number,  of  all  nations  and  kindreds  and 
people  and  tongues."  The  Presbyterian  church  needs  all 
these  to  make  it  a  truly  catholic  church.  All  these  are  in 
large  sense  within  our  borders,  and  the  church  is  really 
many  tongued.     It  must  be  remembered  that  among  all 


these  elements  second  only  in  importance  to  the  English 
stock  is  the  Germanic  race. 

The  immigrant  must  be  reached  in  the  language  which 
he  understands.  This  is  the  logic  of  common  sense  and  ex- 
perience. Our  School  exists  for  the  purpose  of  educating 
a  German  Presbyterian  Ministry.  We  cannot  import  min- 
isters from  Germany,  and  even  if  we  could  it  would  not  be 
desirable.  We  need  ministers  of  our  spirit,  ministers 
thouroughly  American  and  Presbyterian  in  all  that  pertains 
to  national  and  ecclesiastical  Jife.  Hence  it  is  neccessary 
that  the  Church  maintain  a  seminary  for  this  special  work. 

While  the  grand  aim  of  the  school  is  the  salvation  of 
souls,  the  application  ofPresbyterian  principles  to  German 
evangelization  is  the  special  method  of  operation.  No  ap- 
ology need  be  made  for  this  method.  It  is  believed  that 
the  salvation  of  men  can  be  best  attained  through  the  doc- 
trine and  practice  of  the  Presbyterian  Church.  Hence  the 
school  stands  for  the  doctrine,  practice  and  polity  of  the 
Presbyterian  Church  as  contained  in  the  Confession  of 
Faith  and  other  standards,  and  it  is  its  peculiar  work 
to  make  these  principles  understood  by  the  German  people, 
and  to  send  forth  ministers  who  will  use  the  approved 
methods  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  their  labors  for  the 
salvation  of  men.  How  fruitful  these  methods  are  is  proved 
not  only  by  the  success  attendant  upon  the  ministry  of  the 
graduates,  but  also  the  wonderful  results  which  have 
been  reached  through  these  means  by  earnest  Christians

who  have  returned  to  the  fatherland.  Every  effort  is 
put  forth  to  bring  the  students  in  touch  with  the  Pres- 
byterian Church,  and  it  is  worthy  of  note  that  no  churches 
upon  the  roster  of  the  General  Assembly  are  more  thoroughly 
Presbyterian,  more  sincerely  devoted  to  the  doctrine  and 
polity  of  the  Presbyterian  Church. 


The  faculty  consists  of  six  competent  professors  who 
give  their  time  as  the  need  may  be,  to  the  collegiate  or  the 
theological  department. 

The  new  home  of  the  school,  with  the  face  of  the  old 
Father  who  saw  it  in  vision  is  found  on  page  80  of  the 
Gallery.     Faculty  and  Students,  p.  57. 


Omaha  Seminary 


Convenience  of  access  in  spite  of  modern  facilities  for 
travel  will  continue  to  figure  in  the  question  of  locating  a 
school. 

From  Lake  Michigan  to  the  Pacific  the  journey  is  long 
and  the  intervening  population  are  making  demands  which 
can  be  better  answered  by  the  inhabitants  of  the  localities 
to  be  served. 

The  growing  city  of  Omaha  attracted  the  attention  of 
Eastern  friends;  and  from  small  beginings  a  beautiful  plant 


and   an  excellent  outfit  for  a  theological  seminary  have 
been  developed. 

Supported  in  part  by  Iowa  largely  supplied  with 
studente  from  Iowa  and  almost  entirely  supplied  with  in- 
structors from  Iowa,  we  are  but  doing  justice  to  the  in- 
stitution and  our  Synod  by  including  it  among  our 
cherished  institutions.  See  pages  61  and  63,  Picture 
Gallery.

was  equally  at  home  in  building  up  new  churches,  strengthening 
the  weak,  caring  for  the  self-sacrificing  toilers.  When  failing 
strength  necessitated  his  resignation,  that  was  accepted  with 
universal  regret. 

A  brief  and  successful  pastorate  at  Salem  and  Tranquility, 
(fit  names  for  so  sweet  a  spirit),  and  in  his  own  house  in  Cedar 
Rapids,  with  the  companion  of  his  youth,  he  awaits  the  sunset 
call.       G.  p.   106.

19  years. 

Meanwhile  served  Mt.  Vernon  7  years  and  Glidden  2  years. 
Rec.  degree  of  D.D.  from  Coe  College  in  86.  This  brings  the 
record  down  to  1900.  Here,  ordinarily,  we  stop.  But  a  rest- 
less subject  will  justify  a  few  words  more.  With  the  persistence 
of  a  Scotsman,  and  the  versatility  of  a  Yankee,  the  Dr.  is  always 
waiting  for  something  to  turn  up.  And  if  the  thing  fails  to 
turn  up  he  turns  it.  New  England  was  too  slow  to  suit  him, 
Iowa  was  too  flat  for  his  Scotch  taste;  but  he  is  in  love  with  the 
Mountains  and  the  Mountaineers.  In  domestic  relations 
highly  favored.  Of  the  first  blessed  union  a  son.  Dr.  Thomas 
Baird,  and  a  daughter,  Mrs.  Fordham,  remain  to  cherish  sweet 
and  hallowed  memories.  The  second  to  Miss  Jane  Ash,  of 
Mount  Vernon,  brings  him  to  a  delightful  home  among  the  peo- 
ple he  longest  served.  Any  other  would  be  satisfied;  but  after 
climbing  the  Rockies  for  thirteen  years  of  these  two  centuries  he 
responds  to  the  noise  of  battle  and  flies  to  his  mountain  work. 
It  begins  to  look  as  if  the  man  who  for  forty  years  has  borne  so 
many  wayward  people  on  his  heart  might  find  a  Nebo  up  there 
and  fail  to  come  down  to  us.     G.  p.  71.

Beaman,  Gameliel  C.  Of  revolutionary  stock.  His  grand- 
father gave  his  life  for  the  country  that  was  yet  to  be.  B.  1799.

46.  Came  to  Iowa.  Org.  Montrose,  Croton,  Dover,  and  other 
churches.  Preached  wherever  he  could  find  a  hearing.  He 
wrestled  with  the  Mormon  power  at  Nauvoo.  and  saw  its  down- 
fall. Later  he  fought  the  infidelity  that  followed.  On  the 
border  line  he  endured  the  trials  peculiar  to  the  Civil  War.  At 
the  battle  of  Athens  confederate  bullets  whistled  over  his  head. 

These  are  jottings  he  made  in  his  old  age : 

"By  the  grace  of  God,  I  have  been  able  to  preach  over 
4,000  sermons.  Have  organized  or  assisted  in  organization  of 
8  churches.  Admitted  by  letter  116  members;  on  examination, 
207.  Attended  300  funerals.  Married  227  couples.  Fees 
$434."     (Marrying  was  a  cheap  luxury  in  his  day.) 

As  to  the  help  he  had,  A  single  expression  from  his  wife 
must  do:  "The  new  western  home  was  a  log  cabin  16x18 
fitly  furnished.  Entering  with  her  husband,  she  looked  smil- 
ingly around,  and  said,  "Yes,  I  agree  to  live  here  one  year  with- 
out grumbling."  In  old  age  she  wrote,  "There  is  no  part  of 
our  married  life  I  look  back  upon  with  more  pleasure  than  our 
first  years  in  Iowa."   Her  maiden  name  was  ISliazbeth  Jacobs. 

Mr.  B.  D.  at  Keosauqua,  Oct.  26,  75.  Age  76.  Dr.  Craig 
said  at  his  funeral,  "He  was  indeed  one  of  the  Soldiers  of  the 
Cross,  and  he  had  stood  during  his  entire  ministerial  life  on  the 
high  places  of  the  field,  and  in  the  forefront  of  the  battle."

HISTORY 


Bell,  Launcelot  G.  This  honored  pioneer  veteran,  not  a 
seminary  graduate,  left  his  Virginia  home,  coming  with  his 
own  covered  wagon  all  the  way  to  Iowa,  in  36.  We  find  him 
connected  with  Burlington,  Madison,  Shiloh  and  Fairfield. 
His  work  was  everywhere;  and  ended  onlv  with  his  life.  B.  in 
Va.,  1789.  soldier  in  War  of  1812;  Teacher,  Ruling  Elder.  Lie. 
in  36.  Gave  to  Iowa  32  years  of  diligent  and  successful  ser- 
vice. He  established  two  female  seminaries;  organized  28 
churches,  3  Presbyteries  and  1  Synod. 

In  his  old  age  he  twice  revisited  the  western  churches  he 
had  organized,  involving  a  horseback  journey  of  700  miles. 

In  spring  of  68  he  visited  Nebraska  City,  where  he  had  or- 
ganized his  last  church.  Returning,  he  reached  Afton,  where 
he  was  to  hold  Communion.  Was  taken  ill  the  night  after  his 
arrival,  and  said:  "Brother  Sipe,  I  have  come  to  your  house  to 
die."  And  so  from  that  loving  home  he  passed  to  the  house  not 
made  with  hands,  beloved  and  honored  by  the  churches  he  had 
served,  and  a  real  Father  Bell  to  his  companions.  D.  in  68.

Davenport  1st,  40.  Round  Prairie,  41.  Iowa  City,  42-7. 
Washington.  48.  Kan.,  Mo.  Business.  While  in  service  he 
was  active  and  self-sacrificing.  A  financial  difference  with 
Iowa  City  Ch.  he  tried  to  settle  by  capturing  the  bell.  We  let 
the  Poet  Laureate  of  the  day  tell  the  story;  and  we  assure  the 
reader  that  it  contains  quite  as  much  truth  as  poetry. 

HUMMER'S  BELL. 

In  the  Presbyterian  church,  pretty  high  up  in  the  steeple. 
Hung  a  loud-sounding  bell,  to  call  together  all  the  people. 
That  bell  was  held  in  high  esteem  by  all  who  knew  its  sound; 
It  rang  so  loud  it  could  be  heard  for  many  miles  around. 

The  mini.ster  who  labored  there  did  not  exactly  suit; 

The  people  thought  they'd  let  him  slide,  but  he  was  rather  cute. 

He  did  not  get  his  salary  for  which  they  had  agreed; 

And  he  was  bound  to  have  it — and  he  knew  he  could  succeed. 

For  he  had  formed  a  plan  which  to  Margrave  he  did  tell; 

He  would  ascend  that  steeple  and  let  down  that  handsome  bell. 

So  he  mounted  a  long  ladder,  and  climbed  through  the  steeple 

door. 
And  soon  the  bell  came  rushing  down,  and  landed  on  the  floor. 

Then  followed  fast  his  trouble,  for  the  ladder  was  taken  away, 
And  he  was  up  in  the  steeple,  and  there  he  had  to  stay. 
And  there  he  preached  a  sermon — far  louder  than  before; 
Some  said  he  threatened  vengeance,  and  others  said  he'swore! 

For  Vanfieet  had  sent  a  wagon,  and  the  bell  was  loaded  in; 
And  the  driver  never  reckoned  he'd  committed  any  sin. 
He  took  the  bell  to  a  rapid  stream,  and  sank  it  very  deep. 
And   there   for   months  the   bell   remained   while    Hummer   was 
left  to  weep. 


In  due  time  the  bell  was  resurrected  by  a  man  who  had 
turned  Mormon;  and  was  carried  to  Salt  Lake  City,  where  it 
did  service  on  the  prix'ate  school  house  of  the  Mormon  prophet. 

The  failure  to  get  satisfaction  left  the  church  in  silence, 
but  filled  the  preacher  with  noisy  wrath.  Years  later  he  said: 
"That  bell,  that  bell!  I  yet  shall  ring  that  bell  through  heaven, 
earth,  and  hell."  You  see  he  was  himself  something  of  a  poet. 
Leaving  I.  C.  he  was  S.  S.  at  Washington  in  1848.  finally  de- 
posed for  a  complication  of  errors,  and  died  in  Wyandotte, 
Kan.   in   79. 

Moral:      Settle   up   with  the   minister.

The  Omaha  Theological  Semi- 
nary is  located  near  the  geograph- 
ical center  of  the  vast  territory 
known  as  the  "Louisiana  Pur- 
chase." This  territory  is  largely 
co-extensive  with  the  Alissi?sippi- 
Alissouri  valley,  the  most  fertile 
soil  on  the  American  Continent. 
It  is  destined  to  support  a  very 
dense  population  not  many  years 
hence.  Cities  are  springing  up. 
various  industries  are  being  estab- 
lished, educational  institutions  are 
being  developed,  and  States  are 
rising  into  greatness.

FIRST  HOME  OF  SEMl.NAUY. 

The  Seminary  was  begun  in 
1891.  With  its  usual  foresight 
the  Presbyterian  church  gave  the 
enterprise  its  endorsement.  The 
Assembly  from  the  beginning  has 
give  n  approval,  and  devoted 
friends  have  come  to  its  support. 
Thus  at  a  distance  of  live  hundred 
miles  from  the  nearest  of  the  older 
.Seminaries  a  training  school  for 
the  future  ministry  of  the  Church 
is  being  built  up  for  promoting"  the 
influence  of  Presbyterianism  in 
this  vast  area. 


GROUP  OP  STUDENTS  AND  PROFESSORS. 

In  1871  our  total  membership  was  455,378,  and  our  benevolent  contributions  a  little  more  than  $2,000,000;  in 
1905  the  Minutes  show  1,115,662  communicants  and  above  $5,000,000  benevolent  contributions,  while  e.xclusive  of  those 
fur   German   and   colored   students   the  Seminaries  for  training  our  ministry  were    in    that   year   eight   in   number,    in 


62 


1906  there  are  only  seven,  including  Omaha,  under  control  of  the  Assembly.  From  181 1  to  1871  for  a  membership  of 
less  than  half  a  million,  the  church  had  established  eight  Theological  Schools,  while  for  the  period  since,  and  a  member- 
ship increased  to  more  than  a  million,  we  have  added  only  one.  There  are  not  now  as  many  Seminaries  under  the  care  of 
the  Church,  educating  her  ministry,  as  when  her  membership  was  less  than  one-half  what  it  is  at  present. 

The  old  Seminaries  have  in  these  years  greatly  advanced  in  capacity,  but  not  in  proportion  as  the  country  about 
them  has  grown,  and  they  are  reaching  out  into  the  west  for  students  who,  when  they  graduate,  frequently  settle  in  east- 
ern fields.  The  output  of  the  older  Seminaries  could  be  absorbed  within  a  radius  of  two  hundred  miles  of  their  locations. 
How  then  can  the  needs  of  this  vast  and  growing  region  be  adequatelx  supplied  with  a  ministr\-  unless  one  be  raised  up 
within  its  own  bounds?  There  must  be  a  "home  production"  for  "liome  consumption,"  and  unless  we  rise  to  the  golden 
(opportunity  of  this  Seminary,  who  can  tell  how  far  behind  the  march  of  progress  our  Church  will  be  found  within  the 
next  generation?  A  Theological  Scmmary  properly  controlled  and  well  fostered  is  the  most  powerful  agency  a  church 
can  possess  for  the  propaganda  of  faith  and  order.  If  Prtsbyterianism  is  to  be  a  potent  influence  in  the  west,  it  must 
become  possessed  of  a  strong  institution  of  the  kmd  th  it  is  l>eing  built  at  Omaha.  Theological  Schools  wisely  planted 
are  an  essential  provision  for  the  growth  of  the  church.  Any  good  school  will  always  attract  students  from  a  distance, 
but  the  catalogues  always  show  that  tiie  region  inmiediatel}'  tributary  furnishes  the  largest  percentage  ot  students,  and  it 
is  there  its  influence  is  most  felt.  A  professional  school  of  any  sort  attracts  men  to  the  profession  for  which  the  school 
provides  training.  The  presence  of  a  Seminary  in  this  region  becomes  a  jjrdvidential  means  for  turning  the  attention 
of  young  men  in  the  neighboring  colleges  and  schools  to  the  claims  of  the  ministry.  This  truth  is  illustrated  in  that 
the  larger  per  cent,  of  the  students  of  Omaha  is  drawn  from  neighboring  colleges.  In  this  connection  it  should  also  be 
realized  that  more  than  a  dozen  Presbyterian  colleges  have  grown  up  in  the  last  generation  nearer  to  Omaha  than  to  any 
other  Seminary  of  our  Church.  Omaha  Seminar)-,  though  the  youngest,  is  by  no  means  least  in  the  work  it  is  actually 
doing.  Its  graduates  are  filling  positions  not  only  in  the  middle  west,  but  also  in  the  the  far  west,  and  in  Foreign  Mission 
fields.  The  Seminary  is  now  beyond  the  e.xperimental  stage.  It  has  struck  its  roots  deeply,  its  trunk  is  growing  more 
sturdy,  its  branches  are  spreading  in  all  directions  and   its  fruit  is  being  gathered  far  and  near. 

The  Seminary  has  an  excellent  site  of  five  acres  in  a  choi;e  portion  of  ( )niaha,  known  as  Kountze  Place.  I'\)ur 
years  ago  it  erected  an  attractive  building  at  a  cost  of  $45,000.  It  is  thoroughly  modern  and  possessed  of  all  appli- 
ances and  conveniences  which  render  it  adapted  to  the  needs.  Since  the  recent  gift  of  $50,000  from  John  H.  Converse  to 
endow  the  chair  of  "Homiletics  and  Pastoral  Theology"  the  total  property  of  the  Seminary  amounts  to  $150,000,  all 
acquired  in  the  last  six  years.  The  Seminary  has  completed  fifteen  years  of  its  work,  and  is  without  debt.  While  the 
endowment  is  not  sufficient  to  provide  an  income  equal  to  current  expense,  the  Seminary  is  encouraged  to  hope  for 
better  things.  There  is  much  to  be  accomplished  before  it  shall  be  sufficiently  endowed,  but  its  friends  believe  it  will 
become  an  even  greater  power  for  the  cause  of  Presbyterianism  and  for  the  furtherance  of  the  wider  interests  of  the 
Kingdom.

Jr.,  the  Rev.  J.  C.  Elliott  and  myself  nscendeil  a  high  blnff 
oil  the  M(lge  of  the  city.  F^rom  the  summit  was  visible 
porti(nis  of  Iowa,  Dakoti  and  Xeliraska.  Willi  our  hearts  full  of  the  contemplated  action  of  Presliytery  to  appoint  a  general  missionary 
for  the  reiy:ions  luyoiid,  our  conversation  was  also  on  that  subject.  We  were  overwhelmed  by  our  emotions  as  the  Holy  Spirit  opened  our 
eyes  to  see  somewhat  the  extent  of  the  spiritual  desolations,  and  falling  upon  our  knees  we  gave  expression  to  our  emotions  in  strong 
\v(»rds,  cr.ying  for  divine  help,  and  strength,  and  self-denial,  and  couseeralinu— fnr  faith  to  believe  that  the  all-conquering  Cross  would 
yet  triumiih  viver  those  desolations."— Dr.  Sheldon  Jackson,  in  an  address  before  the  Synod  of  Iowa.  October,  1905,  on  "The  Iowa  Move-

Plans  are  maturing  for  the  erection  of  a  monument  to  commemorate  this  Prayer  Meeting.

nothine^  to  do  nlmiit

It  was  on  my  24th 
hir  hday  that  I  was 
ordained  by  t h  »• 
Pr  sbytery  of  Mis- 
souri river  in  18(j7. 
and  was  that  day 
made  chairman  of  the 
Home  Miss  on  com- 
mittee of  the  Pres- 
bytery of  Missouri 
River.whose  territory 
extended  from  Des 
Moines  to  Sacramen- 
to and  from  the  (.'an- 
adian  border  to  Mex- 
ico. I  remonstrated 
at  such  a  responsibil- 
ity, h  u  t  was  over- 
ruled. From  this 
time  until  the  orsran- 
ization  of  the  Synod 
of  Nebraska  my 
church  was  the  out- 
fitting place  for  the 
western  pioneer.  So 
much  of  my  time  was 
taken  for  this  work 
from  my  pastorate 
that  1  often  liad  only 
the  Saturday  to  pre- 
pare my  morning  ser- 
mon for  my  Council 
Bluffs  congregation. 
1  was  founding  and 
dedicating  a  church 
every  other  month  in 
the  year.

At  leniftli  came  the 
mePtiuK  of  the  Pres- 
bytery. .April  a9  to 
Jlay  I.  iw;9.  at  Sioux 
City,  in  the  little 
plain  white  hiiuse  of 
wiirsliip.  The  burden 
■  f  our  discussion  a.'d 
Iiraycr  was  the  one  .- 
iriK  of  a  vast  territory 
westward  hytlie  om- 
pletion  of  the  I'nioli 
I'ai-itic  railroad,  and 
ways  a  n  <1  means  of 
"i.tainms;  m  n  aul 
money  to  send  the 
mis-ioiiary  to  these 
jdoneer  settlements. 
Thi-  L  rd  seemed  to 
li  ea  r  our  pray  e  r 
and  sent  us  that  de- 
voteil  hero  of  Christ. 
Kev.  Sheldon  .lack-

told  us  he  won  111

So  Re  V.  Slieldon

City.  Neb.,  joined  me. 
a  representative  of 
Iowa,  in  a  walk  to 
I'rospect  Hill.talkjne 
by  the  way  and  our 
hearts  burninsr  with- 
in us  as  we  talked 
liy  the  wav.  when 
we  determined  to 
s'-ek  Divine  guidance 
and  as  we  knee'ed  on 
that  elevated  point 
"f  land,  looked  to-
